MULTI-PATTERN FET STUDIO CONDENSER MICROPHONE

FLAGSHIP SOUND
Kiwi is our flagship multi-pattern FET microphone, and defines the pinnacle of modern vocal and instrument recording. Born from our legacy of inimitable design and innovation, Kiwi delivers a world-class vocal sound to inspire once-in-a-lifetime performances. Nine selectable polar patterns provide unlimited creative freedom for any recording session. And the sound—shimmery, elegant top end with articulate midrange and full-bodied low end—has Kiwi winning out against the most revered vintage mics when it comes to capturing world-class vocal tracks.

FULL-SPECTRUM PERFORMANCE
Precision engineered, hand-built, and beautifully crafted, Kiwi delivers unmatched results for every recording session. It combines the low noise and superb transient response of our proprietary FET circuitry with smooth midrange, and crisp, airy high end that flatters vocals, guitars, piano and other lead instruments. The result is full and articulate sound that sits forward in the mix, but is silky rather than aggressive. Kiwi even captures the difficult resonance of female vocals in vibrant detail.

9 POLAR PATTERNS	PATTERN SETTING SYMBOL
CARDIOID For achieving the ultimate “big” vocal sound and capturing instrument tracks that sit forward in the mix with airy highs and smooth midrange.
SUB-CARDIOID Between Cardioid and Omni-directional are three sub-cardioid patterns that allow you to fine-tune the timbre of the microphone to match the unique character of the voice or instrument. These patterns can also be used to soften the edge of close-mikedbrass instruments or “spiky” vocalists.
SUPER-CARDIOID Between Cardioid and Figure 8 are three gradations super-cardioid, ideal for capturing ultra-intimate performances, emphasizing high-end detail and providing cutting power and warmth.
OMNIDIRECTIONAL Perfect for ensemble vocals, room miking, or ambient percussion.
BIDIRECTIONAL Great for recording two voices at once, an instrument and vocal duet, dual instruments in close proximity, or mid-side miking applications.
