RED Announces the Type A Tube Mic
Includes FREE R7 Capsule as introductory offer
Los Angeles, (September 5, 2006) – Following on the success of their solid state Type B microphone, Red
Microphones introduced today the Type A, a tube microphone based on a system of interchangeable capsules. To
celebrate the release of this new mic, Red will be including a free R7 capsule ($650Value) to customers who
purchase the mic by September 31, 2006.
The Type A vacuum tube microphone system is a high quality innovative and unique solution for virtually any critical
recording need. Combining low noise and superb transient response along with a choice of nine different interchangeable
capsules called “The Redheads” the Type A is a microphone system that is as versatile as it is dependable. The bayonet-
mount capsules can quickly be changed for a stunning variety of sounds and pickup patterns without having to shut off the
included “PowerStream” power supply.
“The Type A represents a breakthrough in quality and price for a tube microphone,” stated Ariel Soudak, Persident of Red
Microphones. “Its interchangeable capsules make it several mics in one to cover virtually any recording situation. And with
the free R7, it’s a great time to experience the sound of a high-end tube microphone.”
The transformer-less Class A discrete amplifier circuit of the Type A is a thoroughly modern design with a nod to the
classic circuits of yesterday. Utilizing a single hand-selected ECC88 vacuum tube, the Type A can reproduce musical detail
and subtlety previously only heard in mics costing thousands more. The Type A includes a custom-built flight case, Red’s
high-definition tube mic cable, a shock mount and the innovative PowerStream power supply, which not only insures ultra-
stable performance but features a soft-start feature that maximizes tube life and minimizes startup time.
For a limited time, purchase the new Type A Tube Microphone along with any one of the R0-R7 capsules and get a R7
Capsule for FREE ($650 Value). Complete your purchase by September 31, 2006, send in proof of purchase along with the
