Microtech Gefell M 910 Hypercardioid Studio Condenser Microphone (Nextel Black)
Presenting the matte black Microtech Gefell M 910, a hypercardioid condenser microphone meticulously engineered to excel in both stage and studio environments. Tailored for close-miking applications with solo vocalists and instrumentalists in mind, this microphone is crafted to deliver clean, natural, and transparent recordings, ensuring every performance is captured with precision and clarity. With a well-balanced frequency response spanning from 40 Hz to 18 kHz, the M 910 provides a subtle boost in the 7 to 12 kHz band, adding an extra touch of presence to your recordings. Its 1" diaphragm, housed within an inverted basket design, effectively isolates the microphone from handling noise, while a three-layer mesh grille shields the capsule from plosives and vocal pops, maintaining consistent audio quality. The M 910's distinctive design not only ensures comfort during handheld vocal performances but also gives it a remarkable appearance that stands out in any setting. Equipped with a transformerless impedance transducer and balanced output stage, this microphone guarantees a high-output capability and minimal intrinsic noise, allowing your recordings to shine with clarity and depth. For optimal results, the recommended mic placement is between 8 to 12 inches from the source, striking a balance between capturing richness and minimizing proximity effect. However, closer placement can be advantageous in certain scenarios, particularly when seeking a more pronounced bottom end. Featuring a built-in high-pass filter to reduce unwanted low frequencies below 90 Hz and a -10 dB pad for miking louder sources such as guitar amps, the M 910 offers enhanced flexibility in tailoring your sound to perfection. With its hypercardioid polar pattern, the M 910 tightly focuses audio capture on the sound source directly in front of the capsule, effectively isolating the microphone from other sound sources, including on-stage monitors. This significantly reduces feedback issues during live performances, ensuring a seamless and immersive audio experience for both performers and audiences alike.
