Behind the scenes with JZ Microphones: “This is where the magic happens!” 13th May 2021 “I think the secret for JZ Microphones success is listening to our audience.” Andris Evelis, Head of marketing, is dissecting the brand’s industry appeal, and his comment seems perfectly appropriate for a microphone specialist. The manufacturer has won over a legion of admirers with its hand-crafted condenser microphones, its unique Golden Drop Capsule technology is revered by artists and technicians alike. Producer and engineer Josh Newell (Linkin Park, Avril Lavigne, Black Veil Brides), says: “The V67 is everything you’d want if you mixed a vintage tube with a modern mic: It has a full low midrange with a great top end. Great for guitars and bass, both acoustic and electric, and so good on vocals that I even liked how I sounded singing through it.”
