CLASSIC SOUND, CLASSIC PERFORMANCE
Why do classic vocal tracks sound so good? Is it the warmth, the smoothness, or the way they sit perfectly in the mix? Probably all of the above. We created Baby Bottle SL to deliver superior warmth and presence to vocals and a wide range instruments, so you can bring the classic vibe and feel of a vintage mic to your studio—without having to break the bank.
HANDCRAFTED DIAPHRAGM
Every part of the Baby Bottle SL microphone was designed to ensure incredible performance. The proprietary hand-tuned large diaphragm capsule delivers incredibly accurate and transparent sound, with minimal coloration. And custom circuitry makes it the quietest mic in its class.
OUT OF THE BLUE, INTO THE BLACK…
Every mic we make is born of our heritage of premium studio-quality audio and dedication to inspiring design and performance.
