SE Electronics Gemini-II Dual Tube Cardioid Condenser
Microphone is an incredibly huge, detailed, and intimate microphone. The Gemini
II dual valve microphone is a no-holds-barred piece of microphone history. The
dual valve design means pure valve warmth from the 12AX7 input valve, coupled
with a 12AU7 valve on the output stage. The result is an incredibly large,
detailed, and intimate sound - reminiscent of the classic valve microphones
from decades ago, but with a thoroughly modern twist.
1/4-Inch True Condenser Capsule
The Gemini II has a 1/4-inch capsule handcrafted and individually tuned in
the factory. Thanks to a larger-than-life capsule, true condenser technology,
and ultra-precision parts, the Gemini II delivers a sparkling, pristine
high-end typically only found in the most expensive solid-state microphones,
while maintaining the rich, thick tonality of a tube mic.
Switchable Bass-Cut and Pad
Not just for vocals, the 150 Hz bass-cut filter and -10dB pad make the
Gemini useful for loud and heavy sources like drum room mics and booming
timpani.
Dual Vacuum Tube Design
Most microphones use a transformer to optimize the mic's output impedance
and couple the mic to the mic preamplifier. With the Gemini II, this
optimization is accomplished with a second vacuum tube, negating any
high-frequency roll-off typically incurred with a transformer.
Hand-Made All-Metal Housing with Gold XLR Connector
The Gemini II’s hand-made all-metal housing, gold-plated XLR connector, and
gold-sputtered diaphragms ensure maximum reliability in any sonic setting from
studio to stage for years of demanding use.
Recommended Use
The Gemini II dual valve microphone is recommended for use for vocals, drum
kit, OH, room, acoustic guitar, electric guitar cab, orchestral plus strings,
piano, woodwinds, and brass.
