Sonic Diversity

A well-rounded mic locker embraces the idea that varied sources need varied microphones. Every singer sounds different. Every guitar sounds different. A sparse production needs different sounds than a dense mix. If your mic locker won’t accommodate all of these needs, you will be in for some rough sessions.

Sonic Diversity means you’ve built versatility into your collection: neutral mics that work everywhere, harmonically rich mics for featured sources, “big vocal” mics for, well, big vocals.

Roswell mics are distinctly voiced. Each model is designed to capture a specific sound. Click below if you need advice on filling sonic gaps in your mic locker.

“Roswell Pro Audio mics are quickly becoming my weapon of choice. Crystal clear, warm, punchy where you want it, and smooth where you need it! These aliens sure know how to make studio gear...”

Carina Round

“I compared the Roswell Aztec against other studio classics and it absolutely stood its ground. Without any sculpting or moderation it just sounds alive and magic. Totally present yet captures all the warmth.”

Greg Wells

“This mic blows me away.

“We put it up on a great singer, and it immediately not only sounded great, but competed with microphones that I have that cost over ten times what this one cost.

Tim Pierce

“The Roswell Cab Mic sounds clear, open, and uncompressed. It sounds musical with any amount of gain, distortion, or overdrive. To me, it sounds like you’re standing in front of the amp and listening with your ears.”

Devin Townsend

“This [Mini K87) is a fantastic mic. Small and easy to move around, with a great gain structure and an immediately pleasing tone. Detailed and musical.”

Ross Hogarth

“When we put the Mini K47s up and had a listen, we were stunned (in a good way!).

“It is a true ‘no-brainer’ for anyone who is looking for a great mic at a great value.”

Luis Fonsi

“The Delphos has a very present, in-your-face, warm vibe. The other mics I use are brighter, so I like the contrast this warmth provides.

Bill Payne

“I have two of the Mini K47s. I had been told they were excellent mics for the piano. They most certainly are!

The mics are beautiful. My piano sounds great. I am very happy.”

David Grissom

"The Roswell Cab Mic has become one of my go-to mics for electric guitar. The smooth top end and robust lows make the mic easy to dial in.

Highly recommended!"

Sonic beauty is more than skin deep.

All Roswell microphones are built in small batches, the way famous European brands used to do it. Every mic is hand-soldered with point-to-point input circuits. PCBs are manually cleaned. Assembled mics are burned in for 24 hours, then individually QC'd, including a frequency sweep, noise test, EMI test, sensitivity test, and microphonics test.

All Roswell microphones use bespoke large-diaphragm capsules: 34mm diameter, true condenser, brass backplates, Dupont Mylar diaphragms plated with gold. The Mini K47 and Mini K47x use K47 capsules (single backplate); each with different capsule tunings. The Mini K87, Mini K67x, and Delphos II use K67 capsules (dual backplate); the K67x capsule uses a unique and proprietary tuning. The Colares uses an edge terminated design based on the CK-12.

Our "Mini K" microphones use machine steel mic bodies, to reduce EMI/RFI. The finish is heat treated for durability.

All Roswell microphones use vintage circuit designs, which we've optimized and tuned to raise sensitivity and lower self-noise. Each hand-picked component was chosen to make the microphone sound better. Resistors are 1% tolerance metal film parts. Transistors are "new old stock." Transformers are custom wound with high-grade magnet wire and oversized nickel lamination. Film capacitors are vintage European parts.

The internal wiring on all Roswell microphones is military spec, high-purity multistrand copper, silver plated, insulated with Teflon.

Goodbye harshness!!! Finally after all of these years and having several mics that cost way more. If you’re a drummer, you should give these a go. Matt was very helpful assuring me these would do the job well.

First time I recorded anything over it was in Andres Saavedra's Studio 4 years ago and I've been wanting to get one since. After working with Mosty, I decided to get finally get it. Amazing fidelity and super clean.

I can honestly say that this is THE BEST condenser mic for capturing bass drum tone in front of the reso head that I have ever tried- and I’ve tried a lot of mics! Do not hesitate to buy this microphone - it’s fantastic!

I'm pleased to report that the Mini K47 has not disappointed. Aesthetically, its tone really does have a certain 'quality finish', almost like a fine wood. It has that thickness, but still manages to sit at the front with a pristine presence.

Was looking for a microphone to serve as a possible replacement for my vintage C-12. Asked Matt for something that would sound close to the Colores, but with a variable pattern. Worked beyond all expectations.

I love the Colares microphone. I've used it ever since I got mine to track both male and female vocals. I absolutely love the color it brings to the recording, the beautiful mids and how it handles the sibilants so well.

The Mini K87 has found its way onto every session since it arrived at my home studio. It is a well made, great sounding, affordable tool that can handle multiple duties. I'm also a fan of the shock mount. I think I might need a second K87.

This mic sounds CLEAN! It picks up my voice without bass / low-end added. I'm not a pro when it comes to mics, but this mic sounds a lot more 'neutral' (flat) and closer to what my voice actually sounds like. I use it for rock vocals.
