A discreet "pencil" microphone that has become indispensable in studios and on location
This small diaphragm microphone follows the tradition of the "pencil" mics favored in studios, broadcast, and mobile recordings. Its compact design makes it an obvious choice for acoustic guitars, drum overheads, piano, strings, or ambient recordings, while easily fitting into tight spaces both on stage and in home studios.
For demanding creators, musicians, and sound engineers
Whether you're recording an acoustic duo, a stereo drum kit, or a clear, focused voice-over, this cardioid mic offers clean and focused capture. Engineers on the move will appreciate its light weight and durability, while home studio users will benefit from a versatile solution that's easy to power via an audio interface with standard +48 V phantom power.
