Everything we've learned from years of building the world's best studio recording microphones has gone into the en·CORE 200, a studio-grade handheld dynamic microphone designed to deliver exceptional all-around performance, no matter what your application.

The en·CORE 200's Proprietary Dynamic Capsule is specially tuned by Blue's capsule engineers to deliver natural vocals, balanced highs, and amazing detail and clarity, making it an incredibly versatile tool for live performance as well as studio and broadcasting applications. The unique, durable finishes and high quality craftsmanship, guarantee your en·CORE mic will deliver the performance of a lifetime, for a lifetime of performances.

Proprietary Dynamic Capsule tuned for natural vocals and amazing detail and clarity
Cardioid polar pattern delivers impressive off-axis rejection even at high volumes
Blue's proprietary capsule mount delivers minimal handling noise without pads and filters
Stage-ready construction with heavy-gauge barrel construction, reinforced grill, and hardened metal-plated finishes
Unique styling and craftsmanship, including hand-painted logo, laser-engraved trim ring and CNC-machined grip. Includes soft-grip microphone clip and soft-lined storage pouch

Phantom powering dynamic capsule gives us the rugged durability of a dynamic with the benefits of an active circuit onboard, namely consistent sound across different setups and cable runs
Very low key and yet amazingly cool indicator light on back of mic to indicate phantom power is active
The active dynamic setup also allows the output to be electronically transformed, giving the user over 4 dB of extra output gain on the en·CORE 200

The en•CORE 200 has taken to the stage and the audience has spoken...

	"The overall sound is very smooth with a solid low-frequency response… The cardioid pickup pattern provides good side and rear rejection and tonally drops off smoothly at the sides."

	"I have compared it to various other vocal mics, even condensers, and found it to be among the smoothest I have heard… I give these microphones my highest recommendation. It's clear: Blue does live microphones right."

	"My lead singer said after using both of these mics, 'these mics just make it easier to sing.' When I probed for what he meant by that, he basically said that he felt like he didn't have to work as hard to get the nuances in his vocal parts to come through."

	"The 200 Series in particular had a nice warm, deep sound on the low end and a clear sound to it on the high end, almost like a condenser."

	"It was easy to position the en•COREs to reject feedback (not the case with another mic we tried at the same gig). More important: the sound was crisp and clear for both the band and the crowd (I asked). To me, if the en•COREs performed well at that roadhouse, they'll handle anything."
