UNIVERSAL AUDIO BOCK 187

Description:

The Universal Audio Bock 187 is David Bock’s spin on the venerable ’87 — an industry standard, if there ever was one. From its introduction in 1967, the large-diaphragm FET condenser mic gained instant favor with engineers, producers, and their clients, and by the mid-’70s it was a staple in every world-class recording studio. Mr. Bock has built his considerable reputation with cutting-edge microphone designs that deliver the most coveted sonic characteristics of beloved vintage classics along with modern precision, enhanced performance, and rock-solid reliability. The Bock 187 is no mere clone, however; it serves up its own inimitable sound with a creamy-smooth midrange and sparkling detail. It also offers extended low-end and high headroom, courtesy of its large custom output transformer. Unlike the original, the Bock 187 features a versatile, fixed cardioid polar pattern. It’s also equipped with a true rumble filter hinged at 50Hz. Plus, its proprietary Fat switch instantly plumps up signals for enormous guitars and drums. Perfect for lead vocals and acoustic instruments, the Universal Audio Bock 187 sounds great on everything you point it at. Add one or two to your mic locker today!
