The Placid Audio Resonator B Microphone is a passive dynamic microphone with a distinctive limited-bandwidth sound that delivers a thinner, brighter and more aggressive character than the Resonator A. Its tuned resonant chamber adds crunchy upper-midrange presence and vintage coloration reminiscent of an old wire recording, Victrola or gramophone.
The Placid Audio Resonator B Microphone is a passive dynamic microphone designed to deliver distinctive lo-fi coloration rather than traditional full-range accuracy. Its moving-coil transducer is loaded into a tuned, ported and baffled resonant chamber that mechanically shapes the incoming sound, emphasizing the upper midrange while reducing the frequency extremes. Compared with the fuller, more distant character of the Resonator A, the Resonator B has a thinner, brighter and more aggressive personality with a crunchy top end reminiscent of vintage wire recordings, Victrolas and gramophones. The Resonator B is an excellent creative tool for vocals, guitar cabinets, instruments and sound design, whether used alone for an obvious effect or blended with a conventional microphone to add texture and character. Its passive design requires no phantom power, while rugged copper construction and the ability to handle high sound pressure levels make it equally at home around loud sources.
