More about the e609
This microphone is characterized by a dynamic element, which is capable of handling loud instruments in close proximity without suffering from noise or distortion problems.
The gooseneck mount allows you to achieve the perfect placement of the mic—so you can get it close to your instrument while remaining inconspicuous.
Meanwhile, the supercardioid polar pattern makes it easy to “aim” the mic toward the desired sound source, eliminating off-axis ambient sound, minimizing feedback, and avoiding the accidental capture of residual noise.
