After I heard the Fender
Hot Rod amp with your mics, I erased every guitar part
on the track and started over. Your mics sound so
good, it was the only choice I could make. You have a
great product!

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.
