Telefunken M81 Cardioid Universal Dynamic Vocal Microphone, Yellow

Are you seeking a dynamic, professional-grade microphone that stands out in a crowded market Look no further than the Telefunken M81 Cardioid Universal Dynamic Vocal Microphone. This vibrant yellow microphone is the second addition to Telefunken Elektroakustik's esteemed dynamic microphone range.

The M81 was meticulously designed to not only complement the M80, the brand's first dynamic microphone, but also to carve out its unique niche in the audio equipment universe. Since its introduction in 2008, the M80 has been a favorite in both live and studio settings, thanks to its clear and detailed top end, articulate mid-range, and minimal proximity effect. It quickly became a staple for vocal and snare drum applications, earning its place as the most popular microphone in the Telefunken product line.

The M81 builds on the strengths of the M80, retaining its minimal proximity effect, superior feedback rejection, and articulate mid-range. However, the M81 takes a step further by slightly pulling back the top end, resulting in a flatter overall frequency response. This unique combination gives the M81 a wealth of body and clarity, making it an excellent tool for taming brighter vocals and guitar tones, fattening up percussion, horns, and thinner sounding sources.

The Telefunken M81's tailored frequency response makes it exceptional for recording electric guitars, percussion, rack and floor toms, and brass instruments. Its wide range of uses and rugged reliability make it a go-to workhorse for the new generation of audio professionals.

Finished in the same flint gray body tube and tri-chrome head grill styling as the R-F-T AR-51, the M81 is easily identifiable when reaching for the microphone. The M81 was designed with the AR-51 in mind, with great care taken to tune its overall response to be complimentary when recording electric guitars.

In a world filled with dynamic microphone options, the Telefunken M81 Cardioid Universal Dynamic Vocal Microphone stands out as a bright, vibrant, and high-quality choice for any professional audio needs.
