Rated 5 out of 5

The best vocal microphone I've ever heard.

This is the best vocal microphone period. I use it every week to mic up the cantor at church to record a radio program and video stream. It sounds like they are standing right next to you. The radio station can't believe that our equipment produces better sound than theirs. This little beast is a huge part of that. I also use it to do voice overs for film. It makes my terrible voice sound pretty good. Best microphone purchase....ever.

Sennheiser MD421-II

Sennheiser MD421-II.

A legendary cardioid mic with clear sound reproduction. Easy handling due to its directivity. For most recording conditions and broadcast applications

Pure, Classic Sound.

The MD 421 II continues the tradition of the MD 421, which has been one of Sennheiser's most popular dynamic mics for over 35 years. The large diaphragm, dynamic element handles high sound pressure levels, making it a natural for recording guitars and drums. The MD 421's full-bodied cardioid pattern and five-position bass control make it an excellent choice for most instruments, as well as group vocals or radio broadcast announcers. One listen and you'll know why it's a classic.

Pure, Classic Sound.

Features.

  • Glass composite housing and hardened stainless steel basket-rugged and durable
  • Five position bass roll-off switch-compensates for proximity effect
  • Effective feedback rejection
  • Clear sound reproduction
  • Easy handling due to pronounced directivity
  • Acoustic components enclosed in inner chassis-reduced sensitivity to dust and humidity
  • Internal bass tubes-accurate low end response
  • Handles exceptionally high sound pressure
