Description
Focused Sound
The FM1 Instrument Mic features a supercardioid pickup pattern, making it perfect for focused recordings. The microphone rejects off-axis sounds, eliminating background noise and reducing feedback to ensure a clear audio signal. This makes it perfect for close-miking guitar cabinets, as snares or toms for up-close recording with minimal audio bleed.
High Volume, High Performance
The FM1 is designed to clearly capture high-volume sound sources. It’s dynamic mic capsule can handle ear-shattering volumes of up to 130 dB SPL without distortion. It’s the perfect choice for close-miking guitar cabinets or drums in close-up recording techniques, more specialized isolation cabinet setups, or even in live sound scenarios, while providing a detailed and warm sound.
Up Close and Personal
The FM1 Instrument Microphone’s wider, flattened form factor and side-address mic element make it uniquely suited for close-up miking techniques. With closer placement to your sound source than top-address microphones, you are able to take advantage of the proximity effect to add natural warmth to your sound.
