The M-Audio Luna II professional cardioid studio condenser microphone updates the award-winning Luna mic, acclaimed for superb sound and excellent performance. Designed in the USA and hand-assembled in limited quantities, Luna II delivers vintage look and sound combined with modern Class-A, solid-state electronics for the best of both worlds. The large, 1.1 ultra-thin, 3-micron, evaporated-gold diaphragm with brass capsule captures nuances with incredible detail. The addition of a -10dB pad extends the maximum SPL to 140dB to handle just about any sound source. The inclusion of a switchable low-frequency roll-off filter rounds out a professional microphone that is great for recording vocals, guitar, piano and more.
