From Our Research Team:

A multi-purpose tool every studio needs!

The MA-201fet is a FET-based counterpart to its tube-powered brother, the MA-200. It's a more affordable alternative that still manages to capture warm, full-bodied sound when used on a variety of sound sources. The MA-201fet incorporates a 3-micron gold-sputtered capsule, a high-quality Jensen audio transformer, military-grade FET, and custom designed low-noise resistors for performance that rivals some of the most popular classic condenser mics from the past. The MA-201fet is sure to be a classic!





Mojave Audio MA-201fet at a Glance:

• Solid-state version of the MA-200
  
• Technical aspects
  
• Recommended applications

Solid-state version of the MA-200
The MA-201fet is a large diaphragm, phantom-powered, solid-state condenser microphone with a fixed cardioid pattern. With its roots in a lineage of microphone designs by David Royer, the MA-201fet gives warm, full-bodied reproductions of vocals and instruments, with none of the shrillness and high frequency distortion artifacts that are often encountered with modern condenser microphones.

Technical aspects
Utilizing a 3-micron gold-sputtered capsule, high-quality Jensen audio transformer, military-grade FET and custom designed low-noise resistors, the MA-201fet performs at a level reminiscent of some of the best loved classic condenser microphones. Each MA-201fet microphone is carefully tested and evaluated, then packaged in its protective case with a professional grade shockmount.

Recommended applications
The MA-201fet is perfect for any number of studio applications. From vocals to voiceover work to more raucous sources such as kick drums and bass or guitar cabinets, the MA-201 easily handles it all. A pair work well parked over a drum kit as overheads. And of course, the MA-201fet shines on acoustic instruments and piano, as well.
