ongratulations on your purchase of the BLUE Cactus, a premium

large-diaphragm, multi-pattern tube microphone made the old-

fashioned way, without compromise. In the tradition of the world's

best (and most expensive) vintage vocal microphones, the Cactus

has been designed to provide commanding, intimate presence and

larger-than-life detail in a wide variety of professional recording

applications.

At a distance, and in omnidirectional and figure of eight patterns,

this microphone delivers every nuance in the room, with finely

focused resolution and clear, musical frequency response out to

the extremes of the audible spectrum. But this is also a Cactus

you'll definitely want to get close to! With its detailed highs,

smooth midrange, and minimized proximity effect (a bass boost

inherent in all unidirectional mics), the cardioid Cactus excels at

delivering a vocal or solo track right to the front of the mix

where it belongs. When processed with limiting and/or compres-

sion, as is standard practice for most pop vocals, tracks recorded

with the Cactus will be free of pumping and low end thumps.

The Cactus System and Electronics

The basic Cactus microphone system includes the BLUE Series One

shockmount and wire mesh pop filter assembly, a Champagne

tube microphone cable, and the model 9610 power supply with

adjustable pickup pattern control, shipped in a blue velvet-lined

ATA flight case approved for the utmost protection. In order to

familiarize yourself with the specialized and unique features of

the Cactus microphone, please take the time to read this manual,

and be sure to try the suggested recording tips.

The Cactus amplifier utilizes a single hand-selected sub-miniature

vacuum tube. This tube circuit is Class A and fully discrete, mean-

ing that the sound which arrives at the diaphragm of the BLUE

capsule is transduced (converted to electrical energy) as accu-

rately as possible, with no integrated circuits (a.k.a. "IC's") in the

signal path. To this end, the Cactus utilizes electronic components

of the highest quality (such as expensive metal-film resistors and

a custom-built transformer), and there are no pad or low-cut filter

switches in the microphone circuit. In short, this is a signal path

of the highest possible quality, allowing the user to get the maxi-

mum benefit out of the multi-pattern capsule created by BLUE.
