Royer Works His Magic on a Condenser Mic!
David Royer is known worldwide for his modern ribbon microphone designs. But years before Royer Labs opened, David designed and built custom vacuum tube condenser microphones for Los Angeles engineers and recording studios. His early mics were used on many hit recordings and, for engineers who know about them, they are highly prized possessions. David started a custom mic shop, Mojave Audio, and now Mojave has released the MA-200 tube condenser mic. And it's a beauty!
Mojave Audio MA-200 Tube Condenser Mic at a Glance:
- A modern condenser mic with classic characteristics
- Versatile studio performance on vocals and instruments
- Precision construction with quality components
A modern condenser mic with classic characteristics
The MA-200 is the culmination of Royer's 20-plus years of custom microphone design. The large-diaphragm MA-200 gives warm, full-bodied reproductions of vocals and instruments without the shrillness and high-frequency grunge so often encountered with modern condenser microphones.
Versatile studio performance on vocals and instruments
Try the MA-200 on lead and background vocals, voice overs, piano, acoustic instruments, drum overheads, orchestra, spot miking... You'll agree with the engineers who tested this mic that it evokes the characteristics of some of the best-loved vintage European microphones.
Precision construction with quality components
In a world of cookie-cutter imported mics the MA-200 is a breath of fresh air. Using hand-selected 3-micron gold-sputtered capsules, Jensen audio transformers, and military-grade JAN 5840 vacuum tubes, Royer designed the MA-200 with an eye on premium performance. But here's the amazing part: The Mojave Audio MA-200 comes in priced under $1,000!

MA-200 by Duane Phipps from High Point, NC, May 21, 2009 Music Background: Engineer
“I will put this mic up against a U87 any day. If you want that big studio sound, especially on vocals, this is it. Hard to explain in words what this mic does to your vocals, but it gives them a polish like you wouldnt beleive.”

"I have been a studio musician for most of my life, over 30 years of experience playing and recording with some of the biggest names in the music business and along with that comes the luxury of using the best gear and microphones that money can buy. I can tell you hands down the MA200 is one of the best mics I have ever heard and had the pleasure to use. I have several very famous clients who for years have used expensive mics that cost more than a car in some cases, they were floored when I told them this mic was under a thousand dollars. They are believers now! Try one and you will be instantly pleased at the absolute stunning fidelity. Add a pair of MA100s and you have mic cabinet that will be more than drool worthy."

"When we tested this mic in our studio, our engineers all said it sounded 'just like a very famous German mic, only sweeter'. The Mojave MA-200 is excellent for vocals and instruments. It has a warm low end; yet with crisp, airy highs normally found only in mics with a much higher price tag. A great all-around mic for every studio!"

"There is no need to search the market for a vintage U 67. For the price of a vintage U 67 you could buy eight MA-200s!"

"I am a singer and just finished tracking vocals for my latest project. The vocals needed to sit in the mix properly and not compete with synths or the guitars so we tested several microphones. The Mojave MA-200 in combination with a high-end analog channel strip is the perfect solution for most singers - I know it was for me. The vocals came to life like nothing else I have ever heard. The secret to digital recording is a great mic and a great analog preamp. The MA-200 is my go-to mic from now on."

"If you're looking for a mic that can fit almost every need then look no further. The MA-200 is great for most anything you can throw at it. Whether you are a voice over artiist, singer/songwriter, or you're just looking for another mic to add to your locker, make sure you look at the MA-200. You won't be disappointed."

"I love to sing into this mic. Smooth and clear and very musical in its response. You should be paying at least twice as much for this caliber of microphone."
