The Peluso Community
Our community of artists, engineers, studios and friends have been busy putting our microphones through their paces. We are proud of all the great work they have done with Peluso microphones. Take some time to explore their stories!

For the 22 47 SE, I kind of cheated and put in NOS RCA tube, making it a 22 47 LE, in effect.
I am fortunate enough to have a small stockpile of these old tubes, and found that the microphone sounds great with either the factory Peluso tube or any number of NOS tubes.
The microphone performs fantastically on vocals, acoustic guitar, cello, saxophone, you name it. It has a rich and warm bottom that isn't hyped, and enough detail and character in the top end to completely avoid any unnecessary processing after the fact.
Matt Weston and Swamp Songs
"This is, hands down, my favourite mic! Every time I use this mic on lead vocals I am just so happy with the result. I run this through a Rupert Neve Designs Shelford Channel, and with just a little EQ and compression on the way in, I end up with a finished sounding vocal. Just add reverb."
Red Wing Roots Music Festival
We couldn't be more proud to support Red Wing Roots' work in bringing live music to our community for over a decade!
Floyd Country Store
The store is an incubator for local heritage music and dancing. Year-round you can count on music and dancing every Friday evening, Americana music every Saturday afternoon and a traditional mountain music jam every Sunday. Many Saturday evenings we feature an old-time dance or concert.

The CEMC-6 is as versatile as it gets. Whether they're being used for drum overheads in a live set up or in the studio, the smooth response tames the brittle timbre of any hit-hat or crash all while bringing out the punch of the kick drum & toms but most notably highlighting the warm, natural resonance of a snare drum. Throw a CEMC-6 on an acoustic guitar in the studio & you'll be immediately impressed by the 'true to life' sound that'll come out of your studio monitors on playback. So much so that adding or subtracting EQ will become a thing of the past.

"The 22 47 SE captures the sound of vintage amplifiers perfectly"
Jeff Oehler & Beehive Productions
“The Peluso P-Stereo and SR-14 Stereo Ribbon are my go-to mics for recordings that require the depth and character of a live performance.”
Gene Bowlen & BeARcade Productions
The P-28s are my go to mics for acoustic instruments and drum overheads although the P-84s may take over some of these roles.
Rafael Pirela S (Rapirela)
'I own and love my Peluso CEMC-6 stereo pair. I use them in my records on guitars, strings (as a mid mic on mid-side), brass, percussion, drum overheads, cymbals."

"I used to covet vintage microphones, but that all went away when I discovered Peluso microphones. My Peluso mics capture what I need in the demanding world of acoustic recording. John Peluso's expertise is of great value to me, and I treasure our friendship. And I treasure his mics."

"Peluso mics are hands down some of the best sounding, well built mics in the world. I’m a gear builder myself, and the quality of these microphones astonishes me."
-Siegfried Meier

"Peluso Microphone's have been an essential part of our mic locker since the opening of my recording studio"
♦ We are still in the process of rebuilding our community pages. As we reach out to our friends we are looking to update these pages with their recent accomplishments. If you are a Peluso microphone user we'd love to include you here too, Some of our existing members have been using their Peluso mics for quite some time, check back soon as we continue to update their profiles. ♦
