A Unique Ribbon Mic from Blue!
The newest addition to the Blue family of microphones, the Woodpecker is an active ribbon microphone with a stunning exotic wood finish. The low noise and superb detail of Blue's renowned Class-A discrete handmade electronics combines with the bold sound of a handmade aluminum ribbon pressure-gradient transducer. The Woodpecker was designed to provide the smooth, intimate sound associated with the most sought-after (and expensive) vintage ribbon microphones. With its focused midrange and outstanding bass response, the Woodpecker captures the essence of any recorded sound. It also excels at ambient recording, capturing room tone with the most intimate detail - whether for rock drums, guitars, or vocals - any application where some natural space in the recording is desired.

Blue Woodpecker Features:
  • Active ribbon microphone
  • Figure 8, bidirectional polar pattern
  • Frequency Response 20Hz-20kHz
  • Noise level A-weighted (IEC 651): not more than 22dB
  • Max SPL (0.5% THD into 2.5k ohm): 136dB
  • Includes custom made, solid brass shockmount and wood storage box

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "I've always been a fan of Blue mics so when I heard they were releasing a ribbon I knew I had to try it - and it quickly became the envy of every other mic in my closet. Its buttery lows, smooth mids, and natural highs make it the ideal choice for any application (acoustic guitars and vocals are my favorites). The best part about recording with the Woodpecker is knowing that I won't need to EQ the track - it sounds amazing as is!"
Alan Carter
