From Our Research Team:The Sound of an Elux 251 in a Modern Handmade Mic!The Bock Audio 241 adds subtle yet important upgrades to the Bock Audio 151 (formerly Soundelux E251C) cardioid condenser microphone, even more closely capturing the sound of the Bock 251 in cardioid mode. Like the 151, the Bock 241 excels at capturing vocals, providing great low-end as well as crystal-clear highs. You simply won't find this kind of quality in most mics made today. A built-in "Bright/Normal" switch allows this premium mic to work well on instruments, and its point-to-point construction gives you the kind of handmade craftsmanship that your ears will instantly recognize. If you demand the best in a studio microphone, you owe it to yourself to check out the Bock Audio 241.Bock Audio 241 Cardioid Condenser Tube Mic Features at a Glance:

Reviewsbased on 1 reviewHas that vocal "sound"
by Rick from Minneapolis
This microphone has the "pro" vocal sound you strive for. April 22, 2011 Music Background: Recording engineer and musician Sweetwater let me know when they had this microphone available for me. When it arrived, it was interesting to see that I had m... read more [+]icrophone number 6. These are hand assembled and there was a card with a hand written greeting from David Bock inside. Very nice. The Bock 241 is my first high end microphone. I have been using AT4033 and KSM27 for recording vocals. When I compared (solo the tracks) the recorded sound of the 241 to a KSM27, I was at first not sure there was a big difference. BUT, when you listen to a vocal plus music mix, you hear it. The 241 is carefully equalized to give you that pro sound without "working" for it. It really starts to get exciting when you add compression and reverb. It is that sound you hear on records and CD's. In the past, I have spent many hours equalizing and processing KSM27 and 4033 tracks trying to get the pro sound. The KSM27 sounds "more electronic" and "squeezed". The KSM27 also has much more midrange. The kind of midrange you eq out when mixing against instruments. The 241 in comparison has eq cut built into it's sound to deliver the nice sound right when you hit play. The 241 sound has a low mid range bump in comparison to my other mics. It is a low frequency that sits right on the bottom end of the vocal range. It is a more "alive" sounding low range than the other mics. It does not sound simply like turning up an equalizer. I am thinking this part of the sound may come from transformers. As I mentioned, the mids and high mids are very carefully scooped out. This eq cut is JUST RIGHT to have your vocal sit in the mix. The highs are similar in level to a KSM27, but more clear and less irritating sounding. An analogy I might use is to compare the sound of a solid state guitar amplifier to that of a tube amplifier. Of course, it is a tube microphone. The big benefit to using this microphone came as a surprise to me. It is a TIME saver. It just has the vocal sound you are looking for, you don't need to spend lots of time eq'ing and processing to get the big time sound. I did a lot of research and saved my money up for a long time to get a microphone of this quality. It is expensive, but I am glad I got it. I have no buyer's remorse. close [-] Also popular
