Manufacturer's Description for BLUE Dragonfly Cardioid Condenser Microphone

In the 1960's Mohammed Ali, then known as Cassius Clay, boasted he "Floats like a butterfly, stings like bee." BLUE's knockout punch microphone, the Dragonfly, is best described by this famous statement. Complete with an integrated elastic shockmount, this class A discrete, transformerless microphone offers a rotating capsule grill that can be positioned in the most difficult of areas. Countless hours of research and development were spent to test and select the most suitable active and passive components. This no compromises process, can assure the low noise, high dynamic range and unappreciable distortion of the microphone circuitry. The end-result gives the Dragonfly complete sonic neutral electronics with low-output impedance and no side effects from the cable capacitance and load impedance. This way only the capsule determines the sound. The Dragonfly incorporates the BLUE handcrafted 1 in. active diameter capsule. For this diaphragm they have selected a 6 micron mylar film which has been sputtered with a special mixture of pure gold and aluminum. The capsule operating principle is a pressure gradient with the pickup pattern being cardioid. The Dragonfly is packaged in an attractive linen box.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (14 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "FANTASTIC!!!!"
Sound: Extremely silky mic with fantastic character. I highly recommend this microphone. I mainly use it for vox and accoustic instuments. Feature: Everything you need but the talent. Ease of Use: Truly easy to set up. Quality: What can you say about Blue products? Great quality. Value: I can't believe the mic sells at the price that it does. However, that was yet another deciding factor for my purchase. Manufacturer Support: Have not had a need. The Wow Factor: I have it!!!! Overall: I am getting at least two more of these mics. I expect to use them until I die.
Style of Music: Rock/Country

"Excellent."
Sound: just compare it side by side to any other mic besides a tube mic and then compare prices. this one blows them away, on quality and price. Feature: excellent built in shock mount. Manufacturer Support: I agree with the others, blue always emails me back with help when I need it. The Wow Factor: It looks awesome too, but that doesn't help the sound.
Style of Music: all
