The Singular Audio f-48 Microphone is a large diaphragm fet condenser microphone featuring a a K-47 capsule, the same type of capsule found in the famous U47 FET microphone.
The Singular Audio f-48 has a very smooth top end, with a mid forward sound. It is very pleasing on all kinds of sources, especially vocals. Always full and never harsh. Only the best components are used, with resistors hand matched for the best performance. The f-48 features an amplification circuit with a FET transistor, manually biased for best sound. Inspired by a vintage Neumann circuit (KM84), this design generates a defined and crisp sound without hyped high end. Thw mic is very reminiscent of a U47 FET, but has fewer parts so it has a slightly warmer sound with more harmonics. It also has very low self noise. It features a 7:1 output transformer, for extra smooth tones, a flattering transient response and mojo. An internal switch allows for both cardioid and omni pattern operation. The F-48 comes in a protective hardcase, with shock mount. The body has a powdercoat finish, built to last, with laser engraved logo.
