The Fin microphone from Heil Sound Ltd. was featured prominently in the ad campaign for the 2012 smash hit movie ‘The Hunger Games’, (as well as in the movie itself), for its amazing looks. The Fin combines that “vintage mic look”, with a blend of futuristic, and TIMELESS, all in one shiny microphone. However, The Fin is a professional microphone with all the qualities you could ask for in a dynamic cardioid microphone, it just happens to be one of the coolest looking mics you’ve ever seen.
Best-in-class, smooth, flat response from the shock mounted, large, low mass diaphragm element driven by a powerful magnet, will reward you with rich sound throughout its broad frequency range. The Fin is great in the studio, or live, and it particularly exhibits excellent upper mids.
The Fin has a beautifully sculpted body that is double-chromed in a three stage plating process. Horizontal fins accent its soft angular profile. As an added bonus, The Fin glows via the four L.E.D. lights inside, which can be turned on and off from via the phantom power from the mixing board. This can make for a dramatic effect, or create that “certain vibe” to enhance your next performance. Check it out…The Fin microphone from Heil is turning heads…A lot of heads! The Fin is stocked in red, white or blue and the foam color/LEDs can optionally be changed to green or yellow.
