Recreation of classic tube 47 with modern improvements The e47C is the first of the next generation of Soundelux microphones, (noted by the small "e" in the model number) that improve on Soundelux already substantial reputation within the recording community. The Soundelux e47C is a "cardioid only" mic, as the original was used nearly exclusively in cardioid. The e47C comes with a remote power supply and professional clamp type shock mount and a special custom 10 foot cable between the mic and power supply. The Soundelux e47C embodies all the most important characteristics of the original while offering consistency, reliability and long term serviceability that is a requirement for today. Achieve those "big" vocals you've always wanted! The e47C's primary use will likely be male or female lead vocals due to its signature proximity effect. The original 47 had proximity effect behavior that was part of its sound and why it defined "big vocals". With up to +12dB of boost at 100Hz when used at 1" working distance, the 47 signature was "the sound" of many great artists such as Frank Sinatra. Led Zeppelin 1 used a 47 on nearly every vocal track. Tuesday Night Music Club and Sheryl Crow was a classic application of a 47 for vocals. Now the sound of the 47 is back in the e47C. Warm, intimate sound on acoustic instruments The key application for the e47C is close-miked vocals, but don't let that stop you from trying it on acoustic guitars and other instruments! Cello and violin at short distance gain intimacy and acoustic or electric bass will find a perfect warm tone without muffling using the e47C. Brass instruments are a favorite e47C application (the classic jazz signature of the most famous records from the 1950s) and small ensembles (of nearly any instrumentation) will see the e47C as the new "go to" mic. Individual drums or drum kits will have astounding impact with no overt artificial high end found when using some small diaphragm mics. Solo performers who sing while playing acoustic guitars may be recorded with just this one microphone. Sound quality holds up through mixing, mastering, and webcasting The e47C sounds great in nearly every mixing studio and on almost every stereo system before and after mastering. It will give you absolute confidence that your vocal tracks will stand the test of generational degradation: mixing, processing, mastering, broadcasting and webcasting.
