SEIDE VT-2000 Guitar Recording microphone

SEIDE VT-2000 as a guitar recording mic

SEIDE is a brand born in Germany that has many users from consumers to professionals. The classic bottle-type case with a full-fledged large diaphragm is reminiscent of vintage microphones. Like the original VT-3000, the VT-2000 is a tube microphone that uses a vacuum tube in its amplification section. The only difference from the VT-3000 is that the directivity switch is omitted in the power supply section, and the VT-2000 focuses only on cardioid (unidirectional) for general recording purposes.

The sound of the SEIDE VT-2000 is a mic that shows the benefits of a tube mic. Even for guitar recordings, the sound is smooth and thick, with just the right amount of saturation. It is also characterized by its extremely high sensitivity, allowing you to fully record the dynamic range of your guitar. As a vacuum tube microphone, it is extremely reasonable, but its sound has been proven true, and even professional engineers like to own it.
