Blue Microphones announce the latest additions to its award-winning line of products; the BottleRocket Stage One
Solid-State Microphone System and the Bottle Rocket Stage Two Tube Microphone System.
The Stage One BottleRocket is a transformerless solid state microphone system with the clarity and detail you’ve come to expect from Blue. Fully compatible with the Bottle Caps, the same interchangeable capsule system used with Blue’s legendary Bottle mic, you can add an array of tonal characteristics and pickup patterns on the fly. It’s like having an entire mic cabinet in one mic! It comes with Blue’s versatile B8 capsule as well as a custom shockmount and wood storage box. The Stage One is every bit as versatile as its tube-based sibling, excelling on a wide variety of sound sources.
Stage One Features:
• Class A discrete solid-state amplifier circuit delivers superb detail
• Includes Blue’s versatile B8 capsule & shockmount
• Hand-tuned and tested
• Mic System — allows for different capsules to be swapped “on the fly” for extreme versatility
The Stage Two BottleRocket is a transformerless tube microphone with a warmth and character all its own. Like the Stage One, the Stage Two is also fully compatible with the Bottle Caps, adding incredible array of tonal choices to compliment its highly desired tube microphone warmth. Stage Two comes with Blue’s versatile B8 capsule as well as a custom shockmount, high-definition 5-conductor tube mic cable, Blue’s Powerstream power supply and an ATA-style flight case. Great for recording vocals, electric guitars, acoustic guitars, strings, drums, woodwinds, and more! You get impressive versatility and, of course, impeccable Blue quality.
Stage Two Features:
• Class A discrete amplifier circuit with hand-selected ECC88 vacuum tube delivers superb detail
