SE Electronics Voodoo VR2 Active Ribbon Microphone

Revolutionary ribbon microphone technology reaches new heights with sE's Voodoo series, featuring a groundbreaking mechanical device that achieves full 20Hz-20KHz frequency response without traditional electronic enhancement. Developed by company CEO Siwei Zou, this patent-pending innovation allows conventional ribbon capsules to capture frequencies previously impossible for ribbon microphones, bringing this classic microphone type into direct competition with modern condensers.

The VR2 represents the active version of sE's Voodoo range, building upon the success of their acclaimed RNR1 collaboration with Rupert Neve. While the RNR1 achieved its extended frequency response through state-of-the-art transformers and custom circuit boards, the Voodoo series takes a completely different approach using purely mechanical innovation to unlock the full potential of traditional ribbon elements.

This technical breakthrough produces recordings with exceptional detail and natural openness, particularly excelling with acoustic instruments and guitar amplifiers. The VR2's active design provides the convenience of phantom power operation while maintaining the characteristic warmth and smoothness that ribbon microphones are renowned for, making it an ideal choice for both project and commercial studios seeking professional ribbon sound with extended frequency capabilities.
