The particular frequency response and different harmonic content of each model give them a lot of versatility as well as enormous artistic and technical potential.

The vintage sound is increasingly booming within the music industry, leading to the return of such particular microphones as ribbon. They were very popular products during the 40s and 50s in recording and broadcasting studios. The renewed interest in searching for that sound, so characteristic of those times, is what is increasing its popularity.

All models are handmade in Spain with resistant, modern products that meet our demanding environmental requirements.

Bamboo, is our passive ribbon microphone, with pure creaminess, and personality. It provides a rounded sound, with a very low noise level and a frequency response rich in harmonics.

Designed for those who pursue the naturalness and warmth characteristic of ribbon microphones. The figure of 8 works great for more harmonics and gain naturalness while capturing the ambiance of the room. It incorporates a Lundahl^® transformer, to ensure maximum quality and durability, as well as coloring the sound in a way we love!

White Bamboo, the little brother of Black Bamboo, is a phantom-powered active microphone that stands out mainly for its incredible naturalness in the mid-high frequencies of the sound spectrum, with a lower bass content that triggers greater definition in tight spaces or where the sound pressure is very high.

It shares the same Lundahl^® transformer as Black Bamboo, but its electronics make its sound much brighter and more balanced. You will be impressed by the naturalness with which it amplifies the signal.

Black Bamboo is our active ribbon microphone, powered by phantom and with a very low noise floor. Its electronic design, in addition to providing higher gain than its White Bamboo sibling, offers a dense sound, with more body and presence, and with a slight de-esser effect.

Its built-in Lundahl^® transformer together with the combination of the highest-quality electronic components and technology, makes its sound immediately adaptable to the highest recording standards, making it the most versatile ribbon microphone in the entire range.

This new line of microphones of the so-called “ribbon”, based its operation on a transducer built from a pair of high-power magnets flanking a corrugated aluminum tape of 1.8 microns thick. The result of this process is high sound quality and a very low noise level.

Our three ribbon microphone models are designed to offer the highest sound quality, in addition to incorporating a new multidirectional (anti-pop) windbreak system with several strategically distributed layers, much more efficient and stable than those currently available on the market. They also feature a continuous mass electronics system that minimizes the noise floor and eliminates intermediate mechanical elements. In addition, given the importance of magnets in this type of product, we have specially manufactured for this new range N52 grade neodymium magnets (the most powerful magnets on the planet) with exclusive dimensions and coated with a thin epoxy film that gives them extreme durability against humidity and sudden temperature changes such as those produced in live performances or vocal interpretations. This resistance to humidity is reinforced with a final coat of a tropicalizing varnish that protects all electronic connections for life.

As a culmination to all the technical deployment mentioned above, the Bamboo ribbon microphones perform the amplification stage using transformers of the prestigious Lundahl^® brand, synonymous with quality and durability.

In TIERRA Audio we work and strive every day to bring and refresh what we love and respect, ProAudio engineering, and this line of ribbon microphones is a clear reflection of it. Undoubtedly, the new Bamboo range will bring the sound you’ve always wanted in your studio and home studio recordings with guaranteed durability.
