KAT System

The KAT System is the first hot-swappable microphone capsule system of its kind to incorporate a matrix connection that will accept both the Neumann style center contact and the AKG style floating diaphragm. Available with 251, C12, U67, U47, and C800 head assemblies. The heads are truly hot-swappable and can be removed without the use of tools while in session.

Our world-renowned flagship product now heard on more albums and owned by more artists than we have room to list.

Available with one or more Tracy Korby hand-tuned capsules, all KAT Systems include a power supply, shock mount, flight case*, individual handmade wooden capsule cases, and our two-year warranty.


*Flight case included with the purchase of
four or more capsules.
