Blue Bluebird SL Condenser Microphone Overview

The Blue Bluebird SL is a studio condenser microphone that improves on its predecessor by including a proprietary, hand-crafted capsule. It also offers switchable filter and pad settings, considerable adaptability, and a clear, accurate sound for a wide range of studio recording applications. In order to accentuate resonances at higher frequencies, it employs a large, gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragm complete with a sculpted rear backplate. This produces the richness of lows, clarity of treble, and smoothness of midrange that are typical of Bluebird microphones, all while enabling sound sources to cut through a mix. The shockmount, which reduces handling and stand noise by absorbing vibrations, further enhances its professional appearance.

Top Off The Line Preamps

When the Blue Bluebird SL mic is close to the source, it is especially crucial to reduce bass buildup and improve intelligibility by using the 100 Hz low-cut filter. The -20 dB pad is ideal for maintaining a clean, distortion-free sound when miking drum kits or guitar amps. Compared to many other polar responses, the mic’s cardioid polar pattern rejects a significant amount of sound from behind the mic, allowing it to pick up less background noise and ambient ambience. You can connect any XLR mic input that can supply 48V phantom power to the Bluebird SL.

Legacy To Uphold

Bluebird’s first microphone established a new benchmark for contemporary recording microphones. With its sophisticated sounds and adaptable switches, Bluebird SL builds on this heritage by capturing incredibly clear and strong sound that makes people pay attention. You get a best-selling Essential Series condenser mic when you combine an improved design to motivate you to give your finest performances.

Filter Switches

Each and every part of Bluebird SL is engineered to produce tone that is exceptionally clear. A fine, gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragm, which produces superior resonance at higher frequencies to assist vocals cut through the mix, is used in the hand-built capsule. Over the whole frequency range, balanced sound is guaranteed by the contoured rear backplate. Additionally, your sound’s accuracy is maximized using covert Class-A circuitry.
