JM27 MicroMic from Joemeek
 September 17, 2001
JOEMEEK announced their 'MicroMic' JM27 - a clean and expressive microphone that gives an
uncoloured and pure signal. It is
recommended for recording acoustic instruments such as guitar, bass, drums, brass and reeds, and as a
general purpose microphone for any studio performances. Its rugged design and
dynamic performance makes it equally suitable for subtle recording (i.e. choral work), and extreme use (i.e.
close micing of instrument amplifiers).
The JM27 is a medium sized
diaphragm true capacitor microphone with interchangeable head. This feeds a minimalist FET type pre
amplifier for low noise and superb overload margins. The output balancing is handled by a quality audio
output transformer.
Despite it's performance and features, the JM27 is also a low cost microphone. By sourcing components
from high tech Chinese manufacturing companies, combined with rigorous quality control and testing
procedures, JOEMEEK has been able to keep the price down.

- True capacitor; (48v phantom power required.)
- 20mm diameter (0.8 inch) 6 micron gold sputtered condenser capsule.

- Rugged and light-weight design.
