BH-1 The Black Hole, JZ Microphones

JZ Microphones BH-1 Black Hole - Multi-pattern Condenser Microphones

JZ Microphones engineers' and users' opinion is that any Black Hole Series microphone, which is a fantastic vocal mic, is great on every application it is used. Unbelievable clarity and definition, smoothness and feel, and full transparency is the way industry professionals describe their thoughts after using the Black Hole Series microphones to record their music. It is very handy and compact with an absolutely original looking design. It has a new, original stand holder system (damper) and patented variable sputtering of diaphragm, using a specially mixed alloy for coating. The Black Hole is produced with three switchable polar patterns (Omni, Cardioid and Figure of 8). The designer of the Black Hole is sure that the result will agreeably surprise every user.

Every BH series microphone is an amazingly versatile microphone, but the most common applications engineers prefer are male and female vocals, any acoustic stringed instruments, piano, acoustic drum set and percussion, saxophone and other brass instruments.
