MXL Revelation Tube Condenser Microphone

A variable pattern tube condenser microphone
with custom body design to minimize resonance.


The extraordinary MXL Revelation studio
microphone delivers the warmth and intimacy of a quality tube microphone
with extended clarity and punch for balanced recording. The MXL
Revelation mic's dual gold-sputtered, 6-micron diaphragm and
hand-selected EF86 pentode tube deliver warm, rich, and transparent
sound, and polar pattern selection is virtually limitless thanks to the
continuously variable knob. Record vocals, instruments, percussion, or
use it as a room mic—the MXL Revelation can handle any recording task.


Bass Roll-off Switch
The
Revelation power supply features a bass roll-off switch to help reduce
proximity effect. Proximity effect is distortion that often occurs when a
sound source is too close to the mic. Some microphone patterns boost
bass as you get closer to the microphone; cardioid mics, for instance,
tend to boost bass. The bass roll-off switch reduces the low frequencies
for a more full range sound.


Phase Switch
The
Revelation also includes a phase switch that allows you to reverse the
polarity of the microphone signal by 180 degrees. This can help minimize
phase issues when recording with multiple microphones.


Variable Pattern Control Knob
The
Revelation features a continuously variable pattern selector located on
the Revelation power supply. This knob allows you to alter the polar
pickup pattern of the microphone from omni-directional to figure 8, and
everything in-between. This can be done with the microphone turned on
without causing any damage to the unit; however, it is recommended that
you mute your speakers when changing to a new pattern. To change the
polar pattern, simply rotate the knob to customize the microphone's
pickup pattern for your specific recording application. After rotating
the knob to a new polar pattern, it will take a few seconds for the
capsule to charge back up. During these few seconds, we recommend muting
your speakers because you will hear static. Keep in mind that there is
no single right way to finding the perfect sound. Experimentation with
different patterns in different recording situations will be the key.


Ground Lift Switch
A
ground loop is unwanted interference that can be created when multiple
electronic devices improperly share a common ground. The Revelation
includes a Ground Lift switch to help prevent such occurrences. If a
ground loop is audible (usually a 50-60Hz humming noise), the ground
lift switch on the front of the power supply should be set to the 'lift'
position.


-10dB Pad
The Revelation can be
used in very loud sonic environments without significant distortion. If
you hear distortion from the microphone, engage the -10dB pad on the
rear of the microphone to the -10dB position. You may also move the
microphone farther away from the sound source.
