A Multi-pattern Version of a FET Favorite

The Mojave MA-301fet condenser microphone takes the design of the acclaimed MA-201fet microphone to the next level by giving you three selectable polar patterns, a low-cut filter, and a 15dB pad for incredible recording flexibility. It’s a versatile alternative that captures warm, full-bodied sound when used on a variety of sound sources. The MA-301fet 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 Mojave MA-301fet condenser microphone is sure to be a classic!

Solid-state version of the MA-300

The MA-301fet is a large-diaphragm, phantom-powered, solid-state condenser microphone with three switchable polar patterns. With its roots in a lineage of microphone designs by David Royer, the MA-301fet 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.

Impressive 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-301fet performs at a level reminiscent of some of the best-loved classic condenser microphones. Each MA-301fet microphone is carefully tested and evaluated, then packaged in its protective case with a professional grade shockmount.

Multiple polar patterns

The MA-301fet is perfect for any number of studio applications, thanks to multiple polar patterns as well as a low-cut filter and a 15dB pad. From vocals to voiceover work to more raucous sources such as kick drums and bass or guitar cabinets, the MA-301fet easily handles it all. A pair work well parked over a drum kit as overheads. And of course, the MA-301fet shines on acoustic instruments and piano, as well.

Reviews

Budget underaged U87
I actually won this mic from a Sweetwater sweepstake and would never have even thought to purchase it. I saved a long time to finally buy a U87ai. It was really for the name and clients. However, I'm ready to sell the Neumann and get the 300 and 1,000. I don't need to use the Neumann unless I have a client who thinks the name make their recordings better!!! Amazing Mic! I honestly don't use any other of my microphones and paired with a preamp, in my case the BAE desktop 73 and tube tech compressor it's lush huge and clean. Amazing mic!!!
