Barkley Infinity Studio Ribbon Microphone - Incredible Mic for Trumpet!

I absolutely LOVE this microphone! I had one from the first generation, and this second generation version is even better. It has more gain, and it's incredibly clean. Michael Barkley is a trumpeter himself, so he knows what we're looking for in a microphone. This is a world-class trumpet studio mic and an excellent value for the money! Check out my friend David "Cookie" Koch comparing the first and second generations of the Barkley Infinity ribbon microphone:

Barkley says:

"This is a characterful ribbon microphone with a nod to the classic sound of the golden era of recording. These are warm and detailed microphones suited to many studio applications and instruments. In general, ribbon microphones respond far better to EQ than others as they are much more resistant to phase change. Therefore, you can take a characterful, somewhat vintage sounding microphone and make it sound very modern and crisp using EQ. This makes this microphone a Swiss Army Knife."
