<i><br />The NUVO N22 is a modern near-field and active ribbon mic with a rugged lightweight design, extended top-end clarity, and reduced proximity effect making it perfect for close miking of instruments.</i><br /><br />The AEA Near-field NUVO
 N22 is a modern ribbon mic that challenges expectations of traditional 
ribbon technology and can reframe the way you record with ribbons.
<br /><br />
It delivers clarity and balance in frequency response, even when 
positioned just inches from the source, and can stand alone in a mix 
without the need for the blending additional mic signals due to its 
extended top-end.<br /><br /><div class="columns">
          <p>The N22 can be positioned inches away from an instrument 
and retain a balanced sound with extended top end while avoiding the 
room tone that can cause problems in smaller spaces or iso booths. This 
is what makes the N22 special.</p>
<p>It exhibits a high-frequency bump at 3kHz making it ideal for recording vocals, electric guitar, bass cabs, kick drum, acoustic guitar, and percussion. It is best to think of the N22’s placement in terms of inches instead of feet.</p>
<p>The N22 naturally reduces proximity effect while also avoiding the 
room tone that can cause problems in smaller spaces or iso booths. 
Naturally rolling off the low-end before it hits the ribbon creates a 
much different sound than using electronic equalization to roll off the 
low-end in post.</p>
