The Vanguard V44S Stereo FET Condenser Microphone is a professional-grade microphone designed for versatile stereo recording applications. It’s a result of extensive research and development by specialists over a two-year period. The microphone incorporates both vintage and modern design elements to offer exceptional performance and flexibility in capturing stereo sound.
Key Features:
Stereo Large-Diaphragm Multi-Pattern Design:
The V44S features a stereo design with twin custom-voiced 34mm dual-capsule assemblies that can be independently switched between three polar patterns: cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8. This allows for various stereo recording techniques like X/Y, Mid-Side, Blumlein, and more.
Premium Cryogenically-Treated FET Circuitry:
The microphone’s electronics utilize cryogenically-treated FET circuitry, which enhances the performance and longevity of critical signal and power components.
Detented Heavy-Duty Rotation Mechanism:
Unlike traditional stereo microphones with fragile rotation assemblies, the V44S employs a punched-steel rotation mechanism that rotates in 15-degree increments. This ensures durability and reliability in capturing stereo sound.
Versatile Splitter Box:
The included splitter box offers additional features for various recording conditions. It provides a phase-reversed top capsule output, ideal for mid-side recording in less-than-ideal situations. The splitter box can also convert the 5-pin microphone cable into a standard 3-pin XLR, and it features two XLR inputs for using other microphones.
Quality Construction:
The microphone’s body is made from precision-machined brass with a deep-gloss Pinot Noir finish, polished nickel trim, and a precision-cast Vanguard badge. The capsules are located within an open-weave head basket to reduce internal reflections and achieve a natural sound.
Accessories:
The V44S comes with a VLSM Heavy-Duty Shockmount designed to minimize vibrations and position the microphone optimally. Additionally, the package includes a windscreen for outdoor recording situations. The microphone should be stored in its padded pinewood box, which can be housed in the aluminum combo-lock supporting case.
Electronics & Capsule:
The microphone boasts edge-terminated 34mm dual-capsule assemblies with gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragms. Each capsule can be set to three polar patterns independently. The solid-state circuitry is electronically balanced and features premium-grade components. Critical signal and power path components undergo deep-cycle cryogenic treatment.
Aesthetics:
The microphone’s design incorporates a deep-gloss Pinot Noir finish, polished nickel trim, and a precision-cast Vanguard badge. The model and serial numbers are laser-etched onto the microphone.
Manufacturing:
The V44S is manufactured in the USA, with final assembly and 100% quality control taking place in Southern California. The microphone is designed by a team with extensive experience and has been evaluated by award-winning sound engineers and music producers.
In summary, the Vanguard V44S Stereo FET Condenser Microphone offers a blend of vintage-inspired design and modern technology, making it a versatile and reliable tool for capturing stereo recordings in various situations. Its attention to build quality, capsule technology, and thoughtful accessories contribute to its performance and value for recording professionals.
