The Bottle Caps are Blue's innovative mic system of eight interchangeable capsules that fit into the Blue Bottle microphone. Each capsule offers the recordist a different tonal characteristic and pickup pattern. From airy highs to larger-than-life lows, the Bottle Caps capture anything from vocal to bass, wind instruments to horns - and everything in between with a level of detail and clarity found in only the most expensive and rare vintage classics.
