Mini K47x Matched Pair
The Mini K47x combines the circuit magic of the best-selling Mini K67x with the K47 capsule from the most popular mic in our catalog:
- Midrange detail from the K47 capsule
- Tube-like harmonic saturation from the transformer circuit
- Includes the Cutaway shockmount and flight case
- The Mini K47x provides a unique and compelling combination of the attributes of the two most popular Roswell-microphones, while retaining the "point and shoot" simplicity of the Mini K mic family.
- This model won the "Editor's Choice" award from Music Inc at NAMM 2023.
It sounds like we're recording to tape!
On quiet sources, the K47x would sound similar to the Mini K47, although perhaps 1dB more neutral above 2kHz. On moderate to louder sources, the K47x circuit will be pushed into gentle saturation, which adds harmonic complexity and richness to the sound of the mic. Simultaneously, sharp transients in the source will be slightly rounded and softened, giving the K47x a sound that evokes classic European tube microphones, or a 2-inch tape deck.
Like all Roswell microphones, the Mini K47x is assembled and tested in California, using the premium components and meticulous care for which Roswell is known.
Color - Character - Tone
The mic's name, "K47x," refers both to the capsule design and circuit topology. The capsule is a K47 type. The "x" refers to the transformer-coupled circuit, which gives the mic its trademark harmonic saturation.
Every Roswell microphone is subjected to a 24-hr "burn in" on Roswells proprietary conditioning fixture, then tested extensively prior to shipping: polarity, noise, frequency response, sensitivity, and more. Roswell performs an acoustic sweep test and listens to every microphone multiple times before it leaves the facility.
The Mini K47x has a durable metallic paint finish; the color is Metallic Indigo. Each mic ships with the exclusive Cutaway™ shockmount, Roswell branded microfleece mic sock, and an upgraded flight case.
What it's not: The Mini K47x is not a replacement for the Mini K47. It's not an "upgraded" Mini K47. It is a new design that sounds different from the Mini K47.
