The VIP-50 is arguably the best known mic ever produced by Milab. It was first released in 1985 and became a big success, despite (or maybe thanks to) it's strange appearance. Ray Charles, who called our american distributor himself to order his unit, used it for vocals on at least three albums.I've been told that Quincy Jones and Bruce Swedien absolutely loved it, which is why it was used for Michael Jackson's voice on the Dangerous album, and on several other Quincy-productions. Chaka Khan, Manhattan Transfer, Michael McDonald and several others also used it, and I read somewhere that Tori Amos used to bring her own VIP-50 to the studio when recording.
The VIP - as we call it - is still in wide use in studios around the world, and for good reasons.
