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
• In stock for immediate shipment

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

The Mini K87 excels on vocals (sung and spoken, including voiceover and podcasting), guitars, acoustic strings, and drum overheads. 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.

The Mini K87 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. Like all Roswell microphones, the Mini K87 is designed, assembled, tested, and tuned in California.

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