United's founder/president Chad Kelly sat down to give some backstory on the development of the UT Twin48.
The most legendary series of microphones has returned.
The UT Twin48 is an exceptional preservation of two venerable classic tube microphone designs. The original classics of the late ‘40s and ‘50s have been front and center in countless recordings — and demand for them is higher than ever! United has taken these classic-specification designs to the next level by uniting both designs into a single microphone.
Massive tube sound calls for the right tube: The UT Twin48’s amplifier stage is based around a select new old stock EF86 pentode glass vacuum tube — the last living descendent of the originals’ tube. This results in a bold, rich sound, due to the pentode’s harmonic profile being much different than modern dual-triode tubes.
These legendary microphones, still inspiring after generations, are now available in both of their original forms in the UT Twin48.
