PREMIUM SOUND. HEAD-TURNING PERFORMANCE.

Publisher: Blue

Hummingbird is a versatile, precision-engineered Class-A small-diaphragm microphone. Like its avian counterpart, Hummingbird is compact, fits precisely into tight spaces and can nimbly change positions where others can't. The pivoting head allows for 180 degrees of rotation, so you can record at any angle without adjusting the stand. Featuring a precisely tuned diaphragm based on Blue's acclaimed “B1” cardioid capsule, Hummingbird offers balanced character with plenty of sparkling high end in the studio and on stage for drum overheads, acoustic guitar, strings or any instrument with fast transients and rich overtones.

Hummingbird is a versatile, precision-engineered Class A small-diaphragm microphone that unlocks the tonal nuances of your instruments so you can capture the best recordings possible. With a 180-degree rotating head, Hummingbird fits into tight spaces and can nimbly change positions where others can’t.

Featuring a precisely tuned diaphragm and extended frequency response, Hummingbird is the perfect solution for drum overheads, acoustic guitar, piano, percussion, or other instruments with fast transients and rich overtones.

MIC PLACEMENT
IS EVERYTHING

Simply rotate Hummingbird’s unique 180° head to place the mic at any angle and discover the tonal nuances of your instrument most mics would leave behind—all without touching the mic stand.

Try this:

  • Sweep the capsule between the 12th fret and sound hole of acoustic guitars for unmatched guitar tone.
  • Rotate the capsule between the edge of the snare drum and the center of the drumhead for perfect snare sounds.
  • Use two Hummingbird overheads to dial in perfect stereo images for drums and piano.

TAKE YOUR SOUND TO NEW HEIGHTS

Hummingbird’s unique sonic signature is perfect for reproducing the sharp attacks and tonal characteristics of nearly any instrument, including drums, acoustic guitars, strings and more. And with no IC’s in the signal path and excellent off-axis rejection, Hummingbird delivers maximum sonic clarity.

PREMIUM BLUE CAPSULE
