Inspired By A Classic 50s Ribbon Mic With Modern Components & Iconic Tones

Celebrated Tone, Premium Components, Vintage Backstory

With a boutique-quality build and design, Fen-tone™ is crafted to honor the look and feel of the vintage ribbon microphones of the 1950s, and the sound profile of the most sought-after ribbon of the 2000s. The ribbon inside Fen-tone is 99.1% aluminum, 1.8 microns thick, and custom-crafted in Japan for exceptional accuracy and performance. Paired with the ribbon is a rare-earth Neodymium magnet, designed to create a powerful magnetic field that captures intricate midrange detail with precision. The ribbon and magnet are complemented by a USA-made CineMag transformer, delivering iconic ribbon tones with modern reliability. Compact and durable, the Fen-tone is built with rugged metalwork, making it a reliable choice for demanding studio sessions.

What you need to know

The Fen-tone includes all the features that deliver a complete and professional recording experience.

Use VT/+dB to switch between “vintage” mode (VT) where the mic is fully passive, or “active” mode (+dB) which adds a 26dB in-line Warm Lifter JFET preamp. Use the +dB setting when plugging directly into interfaces or underpowered mixer preamps. +dB does require phantom power.

Note: Only have 48v on in +dB mode, and do not plug a cable connected to phantom power into the mic while in VT mode.

A sleek, popular low-profile design makes mic placement easy for guitar, horns, strings, overheads, and more.

The Fen-tone operates in figure-8 mode. The figure-8 polar pattern captures audio from directly in front of and behind the mic. This is great for off-axis rejection on the side, and tasteful capture of room reflections with strategic mic placement. Unlike some ribbons, Fen-tone has no “bright” or “dark” side due to central ribbon placement. This makes it easy to get consistent sonic performance.

WHEN USING FEN-TONE WITH PHANTOM POWER… DO NOT ENGAGE 48V PHANTOM POWER IN "VT" MODE. DO NOT CONNECT FEN-TONE TO PHANTOM POWER WHILE IN "VT" MODE
