HEADPHONES ON 🎧 We Love Listening - If you’ve ever wondered why Blumlein feels so "like you are in the room"… this is a great example. That wide stereo image you’re hearing... That’s our NUDE Stereo Ribbon. Two figure-8 ribbons at 90° for a vivid, realistic stereo field (that “wrap-around” 3D panorama)...One microphone - Lightly processed in Logic Pro...rich & natural...

Josiah shares his persepctive on becoming the owner of a NUDE Stereo Ribbon Microphone - very authentic view from the coalface of studio work...at NUDE...We Love Listening!

Steve Broadbent – Home studio – Sydney, Australia

So we’re always hugely grateful when NUDE owners share testimonials, social posts, studio shots and videos of their microphones out in the real world // at the coalface of music production. Big thanks to ⁨@stevebmakingwavs⁩ for this very cool unboxing of his new NUDE FET47. And what you don’t get every day is an unboxing video that closes out with a vocal sample...Very tidy.

Tim McArtney - Recording and Mixing Engineer, Music Producer Hercules Street Studios, Sydney Australia

"...As I opened the Nude M49, I had to educate myself. "What's this clone? Oh....no one has been game enough to clone this yet..." I soon realised that this was a rare and discontinued mic from 1949 that even Neumann themselves were not confident enough to remake... $2000 AUD for a Nude mic? That's a bit off brand....BUT HANG ON, this is their best ever! Stunning build, accessories are on point, and the sound is lush! Surprise, surprise, Neumann decided to remake their version...but at $12,000 AUD....no thanks, I'll take the Nude mic any day. In fact, I'll take two! I've used it on Double Bass, Drum mono overhead, female and male vocals, and acoustic guitars — Is there anything it's not good on?!? Bravo Nude Microphones, you have made your best mic yet!..."

Jeff Brown - Shrug Sound Studio - Nashville, TN

Jeff notes that the NUDE FET47 is at the core of his kick drum sound, sitting just in front of the kick, paired with a dynamic at the sound hole. For bass sources, this mic really does the heavy lifting while still bringing detail and character across the kit and beyond - Big Tone, serious versatility!

Benjamin Graham - Session Drummer/Digital creator - Melbourne, Australia

We love listening. 🎧 Big love to @benjaminjgraham’s Sessions series ... and this one is pure slice-loop goodness. There’s something special about hearing great players, great rooms, and the recording philosophies that help bring both to life. We especially loved seeing the NUDE Microphones Blumlein Stereo Ribbon proudly standing just behind the drummer, capturing not only the kit, but the sparkle, depth, and character of the room in a way only NUDE can. ✨ A beautiful reminder that great recorded drum sounds are part performance, part placement, and part choosing the right technology for the job.

Daniel Terpstra - Producer/Audio Engineer, Michigan USA 

"...While recording Jay Luttrull's cover of Ronny Elliott's Jack St. Pete Blues, we used a variety of microphones including the Nude Stereo Blumlein Ribbon Microphone. It's a great swiss army mic that has been used on guitars, horns, drums, bongos, shakers, and so much more in it's short time in our studio. It's used on this recording for the overheads on the drums with Scott Venstra playing along with the shakers and rain stick shaker..."

"...This video is a shoot we did recently with the German Jazz pianist Clara Haberkamp in Leipzig, using ONLY the Stereo Blumlein ribbon, the audio in the clip is also just the Stereo Blumlein, no EQ, no noise reduction, no dynamics, nada..."

I love Nude Microphones. They are my first choice, and I always recommend them to both professionals — because of the sound and build — and to newcomers and hobbyists — because of the amazing price point.
