sE Electronics Voodoo VR1 Passive Ribbon Microphone

The Voodoo VR1 Passive Ribbon Microphone uses proprietary electronics and a long aluminum, ribbon transducer to reproduce signals with wide frequency response, and pristine detail.

The capsule features a figure 8 polar pattern, and its wide frequency response and detailed audio response make the VR1 a viable choice for instruments, guitar amplifiers, and vocals in the project and professional studio recordings.

One of the first full-frequency ribbon microphones

Before the Voodoo VR1 Passive Ribbon Microphone was released, the only full-frequency ribbon mic was sE Electronics’ own RNR1, designed in conjunction with Rupert Neve. An amazing mic in its own right, the RNR1 isn’t cheap.

And rightfully so. But the industry was turned on its head when sE Electronics also released the Voodoo series, claiming much of the same performance, but at a price well below the original. Thanks to an ingenious electrical circuit, you can now get that full-frequency sound for your recording budget.
