Mojave Audio MA-201FET Condenser Microphone

Designed by TECHNICAL GRAMMY® Award-winner David Royer, the vintage U87-inspired MA‑201fet delivers his signature full-bodied sound and exceptional clarity with none of the harshness found in many modern condensers.

A favorite among voiceover and broadcast professionals, Audible Studios™ praise its ability to capture a true representation of the voice without needing additional EQ processing.

On the live front, as superstar artists now demand studio-quality nuance in their live sound, A-list FOH mixers are turning to a brilliant not-so-secret weapon: matched pairs of the MA‑201fet on drum overheads.
