FAT HEAD II's in action
at Skywalker Sound
Legendary symmetrical ribbon design is incorporated into the FAT HEAD II
Unlike most ribbon
motors designed today with an offset ribbon element the new Cascade
FAT HEAD II 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 II offers a unique Radian Grill
Design
The
Cascade FAT HEAD offers the natural and open sound
associated with the finest ribbon microphones. You
will find that when recording acoustic guitars,
guitar cabinets, vocals, drum over-heads, and
countless other types of instruments, the ribbon
microphone will produce the warmth that is vital to
today's digital recording environment. We firmly
believe you will also agree that this microphone
will make a great addition to your collection.
We inspect the audio and built
quality of each and every Cascade microphone before
it leaves our shop, once you try one...you'll be a
believer.
