FAT HEAD Shown with black body and silver anodized grill.
Legendary
symmetrical ribbon design is incorporated into the FAT HEAD
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.
