M60 FET

Paired with its impressive clarity and subtle tonality, the M60 excels at capturing acoustic and percussive instruments both in the studio and on the stage. The M60 is hand-assembled in our US facility using premium components and utilizes an ultra-clean, true class-A discrete circuit paired with an American-made transformer. Its unique circuit topology captures a wide frequency range, which means life-like capturing of most sources. The M60’s thread-on interchangeable capsules allow the user to easily change polar patterns on the move.

Punchy tone with extended high frequency clarity and low frequency definition
Ultra fast transient response and extended frequency range
Thread-on TK6x Series capsules provide Cardioid, Hypercardioid, and Omni polar patterns
High headroom, low-noise phantom-powered FET amplifier
Designed and hand assembled in the USA
Recommended Applications: Acoustic Guitar, Drums, Percussion, Live Sound

“I just adore the M60s, my favorite pencil condenser. They give me a very pure and sparkly high frequency on rides, high hats and overheads. Sometimes I feel like other pencil mics compensate way too much in the high end making a very piercing and shrill sound.”

Ricky Ashford, FOH Ashanti, Bow Wow, Kiana Lede’, SchoolBoy Q, Jay Rock, Soulja boy, Lloyd, SZA

“I tried out the new M60 FETs on the high hat and ride cymbal and was completely amazed with the results. The transient response is nothing short of magnificent and the audio was so crisp and clear that it almost seemed too good to be true. The M60 is by far the best high hat mic I have ever used, bar none. I can’t wait to try it on other instruments, such as acoustic guitar and hand held percussion.”

Mark Dowdle, FOH Steely Dan
