Getting to Know the Mics and Preamps
Classic Tubes 1
FG-47
The FG-47 recreates the sound of one of the most famous vintage tube microphones in
the history of audio. It has a thick and full-bodied low end, rich and present midrange,
and smooth top end. This microphone sounds great on thick lead vocals, but also
sounds incredible as a kick drum mic, room mic, guitar mic, and on horns and strings.
FG-800
The FG-800 recreates the sound of one of the most popular modern tube mics, known
for being the go-to choice for pop and hip hop vocalists. It’s extremely bright and airy,
but with a warm bottom end. Using this mic on vocals will give you an instant polished
‘pop’ sound. However, this mic also sounds great on overheads and acoustic guitar.
FG-251
The FG-251 recreates the sound of one of the most sought-after vintage tube mics in
the industry. It’s one of the most in-demand lead vocal mics on the planet, known for
being crisp, warm and flattering on a variety of voices. The FG-251 also sounds great
on drums, guitars, acoustics, and just about anything else you put it on!
Classic Tubes 2
FG-67
The FG-67 emulates a vintage German classic known for being slightly dark, bold and
thick. This mic is amazing on vocals, rooms, horns and piano, and it’s one of Steven’s
favorite on toms.
FG-12
The FG-12 emulates an Austrian classic known for being incredibly smooth and rich-
sounding. We chose an absolutely incredible version of this mic to model – it’s the
perfect representation of this famous tone.
FG-M7
The FG-M7 takes one of the most famous dynamic vocal mics used in the studio by
artists like Michael Jackson and adds the tube stage of the classic 47, making it
extremely punchy and crisp, with incredible mids that cut through the mix. Definitely
gonna be a favorite!
FG-800M
The FG-800M emulates an older Japanese tube mic, and is slightly fatter and darker
than the stock FG-800. If you love the FG-800 but wish it was a tad less sibilant and
bright, you’re gonna love this.
