MILAB VM-44 Overview

Bring a natural and transparent sound to your varied stereo recording duties with this matched pair of VM-44 Classic mics from MILAB, two professional small-diaphragm condensers ideal for transient-rich sources like acoustic guitar, piano, and drums. With its finely tuned frequency response and discrete design, the VM-44 excels in the studio and on stage.

The cardioid pattern helps you stay focused on your intended sound sources, but the capsule can also be exchanged with optional omni and supercardioid alternatives (available separately). With the -12 dB pad, the VM-44 can handle up to 140 dB SPL, providing enough headroom for a wide range of acoustic or electric sources. This matched pair of VM-44 Classic mics includes two shockmounts, two foam windscreens, and a custom SKB 3i case for transport and storage.

A Pair of Workhorse Condenser Mics
The handmade, small-diaphragm condenser capsule in each of these VM-44 microphones is wonderfully transparent and handles fast transients and high-frequency content like few competitors. It has a beautifully straight frequency curve with a presence peak around 10 kHz, which makes the VM-44 ideal for almost any sound source, but especially for acoustic instruments where it absolutely shines.
Swappable Mic Capsule
If the cardioid pattern is not for you, the VM-44 supports several optional alternative mic capsules. Replace your cardioid capsule with the omni capsule for wider pickup, ideal for room mic duties on ensembles for example, or go even more directional with the supercardioid capsule, perfect for dialogue capture in TV and film when boom mounted. The capsule can be replaced in seconds by simply unscrewing the threaded element.
Ideal for Studio or Stage
The VM-44 is just as home in a studio as on stage, and thanks to its small size it's easy to place exactly where you want it without being in the way. The natural sound and discreet appearance have made the VM-44 range very popular among TV studios around the world.
