Sennheiser MD 435 Cardioid Dynamic Microphone

Dynamic vocal microphone with nuanced resolution and transparency for a detailed sound. The high-end model MD 435 reproduces vocals clearly and confidently, even in loud, live settings. The spring-mounted capsule, rugged design and hum compensation coil reliably shield it from external influences.

The MD 435 provides every voice the same tonal qualities and characteristics made familiar with the MD 9235. Its high-quality aluminum-copper voice coil refines high frequencies with detailed transparency and highlights even the finest nuances. Even subtle vocals can be heard and accentuated effortlessly in the mix.

The MD 435 may be sensitive when reproducing vocals, but it is robust when it comes to handling. The cardioid pickup pattern allows the user to be at varying distances and angles from the microphone and provides reliable protection against feedback.

The MD 435 has inherited its superb acoustics and superior reliability from the famous MD 9235 transmitter capsule. It is the first choice among sound engineers for highly demanding live and broadcast productions and complex stage settings. These qualities are also now available as a wired version.

About Dynamic Microphones at Sound Productions

If you’re looking for an all-purpose, heavy-duty microphone, look no further than a dynamic microphone. Equally outstanding in both the studio and live on stage, dynamic mics are an affordable, versatile, and classic option for nearly every miking application. Popular uses include live performances, studio recordings, man-on-the-street style interviews, as well as podcasts that aim for a professional “radio voice” polish.

Dynamic microphones work using a coil attached to a magnet. When sound waves cause the coil to vibrate up and down against the magnet, an electromagnetic current is induced; in simple terms, this turns the sound into an electronic signal to be channeled into a recorded version or—in the case of live sound—into a speaker to distribute the sound to the audience.
