Multi-pattern condenser mic.

The Kiwi, Blue's top-of-the-line Class A Discrete microphone model, features 9 selectable polar patterns including cardioid, figure-8, omni, and selections in between. This is achieved in a careful, unique manner using Blue's double-backplate capsule. This unique capsule is measured in an anechoic chamber to ensure optimum performance. The capsule assembly is mounted to the Kiwi Microphone's body with a mold-injected rubber stem to help isolate unwanted rumble. The Kiwi is a microphone that provides enough options to satisfy the needs of even the most critical recordist! Requires phantom power.

BLUE microphones are hand made right here in the US. That says something to me. I have two KIWI's and two baby bottles and I find am finding that 99% of my recordings are mic'd with these four mics. There is a reason Windham Hill artists use these to record accoustic guitars. The KIWI is an amazing mic for vocals too, the high end is beautiful, the sybillance is smooth and it captures the low end accurately and smooth. I dunno- don't just take my word for it. 9 polar patterns to boot. That is like the clincher. Just starting out and want one mic that will do just about everything and do it exceptional? This is the mic. You will not be disappointed. Buy it over the Neumann
