SE Electronics Gemini: Powerful Microphone Named After Powerful Old School American Gladiator

May 05, 2008
sE Electronics Gemini Visit

After Michael Bay moved onto bigger and better things, Optimus Prime was out of a job. He tried applying at sE Electronics for a new position in their Gemini microphone, but his resume was rejected, and sE decided to go with a transformerless design.

Boasting a couple of tubes and needing more juice than phantom power can supply, the Gemini is suited for a nice, fat, rich sound. Owen O'Malley tests it out, channeling his best Tom Waits impression.
