Roswell Pro Audio Mini K87

The Mini K87 is a high-resolution condenser microphone with a neutral voicing. It aspires to transparency rather than color. Yet it retains enough character to capture and communicate the emotion of the source.

• Neutral voicing with full low-frequency response
• Designed, assembled, and tested in California
• Handpicked NOS audiophile components
• Includes Cutaway™ shockmount and case
• Excels on vocals (sung and spoken), guitars, strings and drum overheads

The mic's sound comes from a combination of a specially tuned K67/K87-style capsule and a circuit that we've designed to enhance and complement it. The final voicing of the microphone is a manual process that enables us to create a very consistent sound.

We find that neutral microphones tend to be compatible with a wide range of sources, both instruments and vocals. Because the microphone is not trying to impose too much of its own sound on the source, the Mini K87 sounds good on many of them.

“This is a fantastic mic. Small and easy to move around, with a great gain structure and an immediately pleasing tone. Detailed and musical.” - Devin Townsend

Like all Roswell microphones, the Mini K87 is designed, assembled, tested, and tuned in California. The mic goes through an extensive burn-in, QC, and audio testing process prior to shipping. This ensures that every microphone delivers superior performance out of the box.

The Mini K87 ships with our exclusive Cutaway shockmount, Roswell branded microfleece mic sock, and an aluminum flight case.
