Due to the nature of the products we sell, we operate a strict fraud screening process and therefore we are only able to deliver to the billing address.

In the event of a delay, we will contact you either by email or telephone as soon as reasonably possible.

While 99% of UK locations are valid for next day/Saturday delivery, there are a few remote locations which are not covered.

*RME products cannot be shipped to the Republic of Ireland.

 

Missed Deliveries

If you are not in to receive the order at the time delivery is attempted, a card will normally be left to notify you of the missed delivery attempt. This will allow you to either telephone the courier company to arrange a re-delivery at a more convenient time or collect it from your local courier depot or Royal Mail sorting office. For security reasons, all items require a signature.

If for any reason the item is returned to us (e.g. incorrect address specified, multiple failed delivery attempts), then we will inform you immediately by email as soon as we receive the item. From this point forth, you will be given a choice whether you wish us to re-dispatch the item or cancel the order. Please refer to our Cancellations & 14 Day Returns Procedure for more details. For items where delivery failed through no fault of Synthax Audio (UK), you will be liable for the original shipping charge, any courier surcharges and any subsequent delivery charges.

 

Late Deliveries or Dispatch

We are able to ship almost every order in the specified timescale. However, in very rare circumstances there can be an unforeseen delay. If this does happen, we will make it our priority to get your order dispatched from our warehouse as soon as reasonably possible.

There are also rare cases, beyond our control, when the delivery company itself has a problem which causes a delay in transit. In these situations we will do our utmost to liaise with the relevant delivery company to ensure delivery is completed as swiftly as possible.

Consequential Loss for Late Deliveries

If a delivery is late, then we will provide a refund of any delivery fee that we charged you. We do not provide financial compensation to cover consequential losses, e.g. for time taken off work to receive a delivery, or if the item is intended as a gift and you have to purchase the same item from a more expensive retailer.

Description

Tierra Audio Bamboo Microphones

Bamboo is Tierra Audio's latest line of ribbon microphones, featuring a passive ribbon microphone called Bamboo, and two active ribbon microphones, White Bamboo and Black Bamboo.

The three ribbon microphone models are designed to offer maximum sound quality and much-improved durability compared to traditional ribbon microphones.

All models are handmade in Spain with resistant, modern products that meet our demanding environmental requirements.

The particular frequency response and different harmonic content of each model give them a lot of versatility as well as enormous artistic and technical potential.

This new line of microphones of the so-called “ribbon”, based its operation on a transducer built from a pair of high-power magnets (the most powerful magnets on the planet) flanking a corrugated aluminum tape of 1.8 microns thick.

The result of this process is high sound quality and a very low noise level.

In addition, the Bamboo range incorporates a new multidirectional (anti-pop) windbreak system with several strategically distributed layers, much more efficient and stable than those currently available on the market.

They also feature a continuous mass electronics system that minimizes the noise floor and eliminates intermediate mechanical elements.  

As a culmination to all the technical deployment mentioned above, the Bamboo ribbon microphones perform the amplification stage using transformers of the prestigious Lundahl® brand, synonymous with quality and durability.

 

Tierra Audio Black Bamboo - Active Ribbon Microphone

Black Bamboo is Tierra Audio's active ribbon microphone, powered by phantom and with a very low noise floor.

Its electronic design, in addition to providing higher gain than its White Bamboo sibling, offers a dense sound, with more body and presence, and with a slight de-esser effect.

Its built-in Lundahl® transformer together with the combination of the highest-quality electronic components and technology, makes its sound immediately adaptable to the highest recording standards, making it the most versatile ribbon microphone in the entire range.

Eco-Friendly Packaging

The Tierra Audio Bamboo passive ribbon microphone comes packaged in an elegant and wooden box with bamboo finishes, with the outer sleeve made from recycled cardboard.

An additional cotton bag (also made from recycled material) is included inside to protect the microphone during studio or live sessions, as well as a microphone clamp. 

The Bamboo range is part of the TIERRA GREEN initiative, in which Tierra Audio plants a tree for every 5 units of the ribbon microphone line.
