Class-A discrete electronics

The high-grade components and professional design result in the perfect, all-rounder condenser microphone. The King Bee takes after its namesake, providing everything needed to get the job done with low self-noise and high sensitivity. The cardioid pickup pattern and cutting-edge technology is ideal for everything from vocals and drums to woodwind and string instruments. Requiring, +48V Phantom Power, the microphone delivers a clear and natural sound, retaining the natural harmonics of your sound source.

Eye-catching design complete with accessories

The robust yet sleek design of the microphone is ideal for home-recording studios and intermediate users. The microphone also comes complete with a dedicated shockmount and a pop filter for improved audio performance. The pop filter snaps directly to the microphone and helps to minimise sibilance and plosive sounds for improved clarity.

The shock mount helps to prevent low-end frequencies and structure-borne noise while recording. The unique vinyl figure that is at the base of the microphone is ideal for desktop use. Additionally, the microphone comes complete with a velvet storage bag designed to protect your microphone when not in use.
