 “Technical Grammy Award Winner David Royer’s modern take on a legend – the Sony C-37a. Known for its high headroom and ability to tame brittle high end, it became a workhorse in the 60’s, especially during the golden age of Hollywood recording…”

-mojaveaudio.com on the MA-37

The Coles 4038 is a legendary ribbon microphone revered for its smooth, natural sound and incredible detail, making it an excellent choice for drum recording. Its figure-8 polar pattern captures our room ambiance beautifully, adding depth and dimension to our recordings.
