FAT HEAD Shown with black body and silver anodized grill.
My name is Jeremy Coverdale, I run a
studio in Redding, Ca. I also play in Wesley Jensen and the Wildcats. We have
been using your Fat Head mic a lot for various different tracking needs and I
really love what you have done.. The Fat Head I am using is on loan to me from
a fellow engineer friend. I gotta say, I have been using this mic with many
other mics 10x the price and it really holds up. The Fat Head I am using is
not even the upgraded one. I am amazed by the warmth and clarity.
Also, We just made a little promo video of a live recording of one of our new
songs and recorded all the audio with the Fat Head placed in the middle with
us standing around the mic.. I ran the mic into a Universal Audio LA610
(really makes this mic come alive). This is a live one take video and I am
more than happy with how well the audio came through.. It took a little
figuring out the best distance from the mic for each of us but i think we
really got a good mix... there was very little eq done and NO overdubs.
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.
