Blue Microphones Woodpecker Active Ribbon Microphone

Over five years in development, the Woodpecker is the only choice when searching for the smoky, warm, classic sound of a ribbon, but without sacrificing the bright presence of top-end. The Woodpecker is designed to deliver the wide frequency response needed in today’s modern recording environment. With its focused mid-range, ultra-smooth top end and outstanding bass response, the Woodpecker captures the essence of any recorded sound. It also excels at ambient recording, capturing room tone with the most intimate detail.

The Woodpecker’s gorgeous wood finish and unique active circuitry make the it one of the most interesting and beautiful microphones you’ll ever lay eyes or ears on. Beneath the luxurious exterior, you’ll find that the Woodpecker is a precision crafted recording tool, combining the low noise and superb detail of our Class-A discrete handmade electronics with the bold, larger-than-life smooth, intimate sound of our handcrafted aluminum ribbon pressure-gradient transducer. After just one listen, you’ll realize that the Woodpecker is a cut (or a peck!) above other ribbon mics in its class.

The Woodpecker was designed to provide the smooth, intimate sound associated with the most sought-after (and expensive) vintage ribbon microphones. With its focused mid-range and outstanding bass response, the Woodpecker captures the essence of any recorded sound. The Woodpecker also excels at ambient recording, capturing room tone with the most intimate detail — whether for rock drums, guitars or vocals — any application where some natural space in the recording is desired.
