M-Audio Announces Solaris Large Capsule Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone

ARCADIA, Calif., September 25, 2003 -- M-Audio, a leading manufacturer and distributor of hardware and software for computer-centric musicians, is pleased to announce shipment of the new Solaris microphone. The Solaris is a full-featured, large diaphragm condenser microphone offering the look, feel and sonic performance of mics costing significantly more.

As a versatile and appealing addition to the project studio's microphone cabinet, or as a single, multi-purpose mic for a personal home studio setup, the Solaris has been painstakingly designed with features usually reserved for more expensive and exotic microphones. Its precision-designed three-micron diaphragm, selectable polar patterns, bass roll-off filter and switchable -10 dB pad place it firmly in a class previously reserved for high-end imported studio mics. Its innovative, alluring designer look and vintage motif are guaranteed to command attention and respect.

Offering precision circuitry and components, low self-noise and minimal coloration, the Solaris microphone is the ideal tool for capturing the nuances of vocals, acoustic instruments and other critical source material. With its unparalleled craftsmanship and build quality, the Solaris delivers professional quality recordings at a street price of under $300.

"One look at the Solaris and you can tell immediately, this is a serious microphone," said Adam Castillo, M-Audio's Marketing Director. "We designed the Solaris to fill a niche by providing an affordable solution for serious musicians and recordists who require high quality and pristine sound at an affordable price."

Solaris carries an MSRP of $359.95 and is now shipping.
