Neat Microphones - NT-WORKER

Description

The Worker Bee creates a living situation in the hive that supports the brood - and this Worker Bee does exactly the same for recording. The internally shock-mounted 24mm medium diaphragm capsule, combined with custom Class A discrete electronics, can handle high sound pressure levels with a wide frequency and dynamic range. While the Worker Bee is the perfect compliment for guitar amps, brass, live recordings, drums, and other "big" sounds, it retains a level of detail that brings out the nuances in vocals, plucked instruments like acoustic guitar, percussion and much more.

The Worker Bee package includes the Honeycomb pop filter and Beekeeper custom shockmount, and is also compatible with the optional Beeline quad conductor XLR mic cable. For a condenser mic that can handle just about anything with extreme accuracy, the Worker Bee is ready to serve you.
