Blue Bottle Condenser Microphone at a Glance:
  • Extremely versatile tube condenser mic
  • Power supply helps preserve tube life
  • Eight available capsules

Extremely versatile tube condenser mic
The Blue Bottle not only sounds like a dream, but it's extremely versatile. The Bottle features eight different interchangeable capsules, so you can change capsules to deliver different tonality, patterns and uses while the microphone is still turned on, thus eliminating the need for many types of mics. The amplifier design is based on a single vacuum tube pentode EF86 in a triode mode. Blue hand selects the tube for low noise performance.

Power supply helps preserve tube life
The Blue Bottle microphone is packaged with one B6 Lollipop capsule and the 9610 Tube Microphone Power supply. Blue has developed the 9610 with the new SOFT START feature to assure the longevity of the vacuum tube, and the stability of the microphone circuitry. No other commercially available tube microphone power supply offers this unique feature. Champagne tube microphone cable is standard inclusion and all the above is all housed in a Blue velvet lined ATA approved flight case.

Eight available capsules
The Bottle Mic can employ seven additional hand-built capsules crafted by Blue at their factory.

Blue Bottle Available Pattern selections:
  • B7: Cardioid large diaphragm single backplate. The Classic Vocal Sound.
  • B6: Cardioid large diaphragm dual backplate. The Blue Standard, included with the Bottle - The Modern Presence Vocal Sound

“I own this mic with the B7, B6, and B4 caps. The B7 is styled after the U47 (K47), the B6 after the C12 (CK12), and the B7 after the M50 (M7). Do any of them sound exactly like the caps they are modeled after? Not exactly. In my opinion, they sound BETTER. First of all, the Bottle is quieter than ANY of those mics listed. The sound of each capsule, while based loosly on the venerable...” Read More
