For professionals seeking a durable, high-quality, and versatile microphone, the M81 Custom Handheld Supercardioid Universal Dynamic Vocal Microphone in Turquoise is an exceptional choice. This dynamic microphone, crafted by the renowned audio equipment manufacturer Telefunken, is designed to stand out in a market saturated with dynamic microphone options.
Building on the success of the M80, Telefunken's first dynamic offering, the M81 retains the same minimal proximity effect, superior feedback rejection, and articulate mid-range that made its predecessor a favorite in both live and studio environments. However, the M81 takes it a step further by pulling back the top end, resulting in a flatter overall frequency response. This unique sonic characteristic gives the M81 a wealth of body and clarity, making it an excellent tool for taming brighter vocals and guitar tones, as well as for enhancing percussion, horns, and thinner sounding sources.
The M81's tailored frequency response makes it exceptional for a wide range of applications, including electric guitars, percussion, rack and floor toms, and brass instruments. Its rugged reliability and versatile performance make it the go-to microphone for the new generation of audio professionals.
Finished in a striking turquoise flint gray body tube and tri-chrome head grill, the M81 is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. Its design was carefully tuned to be complimentary to the AR-51, particularly when recording electric guitars.
The M81 Custom Handheld Supercardioid Universal Dynamic Vocal Microphone truly lives up to its name as a "Universal Dynamic Microphone". It is designed to be used on virtually anything and everything, making it a reliable and versatile addition to any professional audio setup. Each M81 microphone ships with a leather zipper bag and M 780 mic clip, providing everything you need to start capturing high-quality audio.
