Featuring upgraded electronics and a sleek new look, the new SP microphone product line is the result of 5 years of research and development by Brent Casey, veteran microphone designer and Vice President of Engineering of Studio Projects. The new electronics allow for better signal to noise ratio, as well as greater dynamic range.
All B Series microphones (except the TB1) now feature -10dB and -20dB pads.
The Studio Projects B1 condenser microphone is a large diaphragm cardioid microphone in a pressure-gradient transducer employing high quality transformerless design and extremely low noise.
