## Description

Unlike most ribbon motors designed today with an offset ribbon the new Cascade FAT HEAD houses a hand-tuned ribbon element that incorporates the legendary symmetrical ribbon design. This design offers a true figure 8 pattern. The corrugated aluminum membrane itself is positioned in the center from front to back, thus producing a balanced audio input signal to both sides of the ribbon assembly. This design is very useful when executing a mid-side or Blumlein recording set-up and also great for live stage use. The FAT HEAD warm full-bodied signature and increased sensitivity is what you would expect and demand from a professional ribbon microphone and the FAT HEAD delivers. The FAT HEAD is suited for guitar cabinets, drum over-heads, vocal, piano, horns, strings, and much more. Our stereo pairs include a Blumlein Stereo Bar that makes mid-side setups a snap. Discover the true magic of ribbon microphones by using them in pairs Specifications: Type: Ribbon (velocity) Microphone Ribbon type & Dimensions: 99% Pure aluminum, 2.5 micron, 1 3/4&quot; (L) X 3/16&quot; (W) Polar pattern: Figure 8 Symmetrical design Sensitivity: -56 db +/- 2 dB (0 dB=1V/Pa) Frequency response: See PDF below Output Impedance: <=200 Ohms Recommended load impedance: >1000 Ohms Max.
