From Our Research Team:

Delivers a distinctive sound all its own

B.L.U.E.'s top-of-the-line, solid-state microphone! The Kiwi is a multipattern studio condenser mic with a world-class performance all its own - it looks and sounds like no other mic. Capsule patterns feature cardioid, figure 8, omni, and selections in between for a total of nine different choices. Though it's great for a wide number of recording applications, the Kiwi is really sweet on vocals, adding punch, clarity and a unique low-end warmth on both spoken and singing tracks. It includes "The Shock," a robust shock-mount.

Features:
  • Multi-purpose mic - ideal for silky lead vocal, piano, and multi pattern recording
  • Multipattern condensor - cardioid, omni, figure 8
  • Class A discrete circuitry
  • Blue's famous hand-built large diaphragm capsule
  • Modern sound - rich lows, countered mid-range, extra airy presence in the highs
  • Integrated capsule shockmounting
  • Hand-tuned and tested
  • Includes cherry wood storage box, and The Shock, Blue's elastic shock mount

When I opened the Box, first thing was the "Beautiful" Design and "The Size", then we plugged it in, I mean the sound of the voice coming out through the monitors was like someone was talking in my fa... read more [+]ce literally.

Sweetwater Advice

Carson McClain
A lot of customers ask me what mic will give them a better sound on their vocals, yet also work well to record their instrument. Look no further than the Blue Kiwi, because this mic is amazing. If you want to take your recordings up 5 notches, this is your mic. I'm very impressed with the way it handles my vocals and how it sounds on the acoustic guitars that I record.
