Gemini II
Incredibly huge, detailed, and intimate
The Gemini II dual valve microphone is a no-holds-barred piece of microphone history. The dual valve design means pure valve warmth from the 12AX7 input valve, coupled with a 12AU7 valve on the output stage. The result is an incredibly large, detailed, and intimate sound – reminiscent of the classic valve microphones from decades ago, but with a thoroughly modern twist.
Inside the Gemini II
1/4″ TRUE CONDENSER CAPSULE
The Gemini II has a 1/4″ capsule handcrafted and individually tuned in our factory. Thanks to a larger-than-life capsule, true condenser technology and ultra-precision parts, the Gemini II delivers a sparkling, pristine high-end typically only found in the most expensive solid-state microphones, while maintaining the rich, thick tonality of a tube mic.
SWITCHABLE BASS-CUT AND PAD
Not just for vocals, the 150 Hz bass-cut filter and -10dB pad make the Gemini useful for loud and heavy sources like drum room mics and booming timpani.
DUAL VACUUM TUBE DESIGN
Most microphones use a transformer to optimize the mic’s output impedance and couple the mic to the mic preamplifier. With the Gemini II, this optimization is accomplished with a second vacuum tube, negating any high-frequency roll-off typically incurred with a transformer.
Inside the Gemini II Floor Box
TRANSPARENT AUDIO TRANSFORMER
Designed for rich, musical performance and superb isolation in any environment.
SOLID FLIGHT CASE + WOODEN STORAGE BOX
The Gemini II comes packaged in a wooden presentation box next to its custom shockmount and robust power supply, all within a secure and solid flight case.
