Experience the pure, uncolored sound of the Sontronics Mercury tube microphone with variable directional pattern during a recording of a concert grand piano at the renowned Angel Studios, part of the Abbey Road Institute.
For this recording, the Mercury was set to a cardioid directional characteristic, focusing on the natural sound of the piano and limiting reflections from the room. No EQ or effects processing was applied, so you can hear the Mercury's smooth response, high detail and rich harmonic sound unprocessed.
