Resurrecting a revered microphone with new tricks for their EMI Abbey Road Studios line of products, the TG Microphone Type L from Chandler Limited is a large-diaphragm FET condenser mic that sports the bigger-than-solid-state sound and flexibility of its utilitarian workhorse lineage. Like the celebrated original, the TG Mic Type L features the Dual Tone System for two different input stages, but with modifications, for further versatility: System A gives you a mid-forward and harmonically rich sound for wonderful vintage warmth, while the System B setting provides a more pristine, transparent sound with extremely high SPL resistance.

The TG Mic Type L utilizes a cardioid pickup pattern for tight directivity and avoiding unwanted sounds to the rear and sides. The built-in -10 dB pad lets you reign in excessively loud sounds, eliminating distortion. The transducer is a custom design with gold sputtering for high conductivity and corrosion resistance. This microphone includes a swivel mount stand adapter and a bamboo hard case.
