Ear Trumpet Labs Louise

Hand-made Cardioid Microphone

Description

Ear Trumpet Labs Louise is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone spring-suspended in a pivoting slim stainless steel ring. Tuned for live performance use, ideal for micing small acoustic ensembles. The new classic bluegrass mic.

Louise has the clarity, gain, feedback resistance, and full, natural frequency response to change the game when it comes to living single-mic situations. She has a pleasing high end with no harshness and a sound that performers, audiences, and engineers all describe as astonishingly natural.

She can also bring that winning sound into the studio, capturing vocals and acoustic instruments with straightforward clarity.

Acoustically identical to Josephine and the various bike gear models. For a slightly warmer, mellower sound for the same applications, consider Myrtle.
