Instrument Microphones

Instrument microphones are selected for drums, guitar and bass cabinets, brass, strings, percussion and other acoustic sources where placement and transient handling are central. The catalogue includes dynamic, condenser, clip-on and specialist designs, so compare polar pattern, maximum sound-pressure level, sensitivity, mounting method and cable or connector requirements. Consider whether the microphone should capture a close attack, a fuller body or a blend with room sound. A suitable model also needs to fit the instrument, stand or clip position and the preamp or interface receiving the signal.
