USER MANUAL AND CARE
OVERVIEW
The Model 2S is a passive stereo ribbon microphone. It
uses the same exact ribbon motor and transformer found in
our Model 2, giving it the same unique sonic character as the
Model 2, but in a stereo package. The microphone's extended
frequency response and excellent stereo imaging allow you to
capture stunning stereo recordings with ease. The Model 2S
captures superb stereo recordings with great depth and 3D
like sound. It shines on orchestral and choral recordings. It will
have you hearing drum overheads and room recordings like
never before. The Model 2S will easily become your favorite
on strings sections, horn sections, piano, acoustic guitar, and
so much more.
