• Tailored frequency response is smooth and extended. Tuned specifically for drum applications. • Cardioid polar pattern picks up the most sound from in front of the microphone and some sound from the sides. Less susceptible to feedback in high volume settings. • Dynamic cartridge has a simple, rugged coil. Handles extreme volume levels without distortion. • Cartridge includes a neodymium magnet for high output level. • Internal shock mount for reduced handling noise. • Durable metal construction. • Integral stand mount. • Hardened steel mesh tapered grille that resists wear and abuse. • Includes 15ft (4.57m) cable, A50D drum mount and storage bag.

PG81 Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone is a professional quality flat-response microphone designed to be used in sensitive acoustic instrument applications. With rugged durability and excellent sound, this versatile microphone comes with an on/off switch, swivel adapter, carrying pouch and choice of with XLR cable, or without. Phantom power or included AA battery required.

• Flat frequency response is wide and uniform. Consistent sensitivity through frequency range. • Cardioid polar pattern picks up the most sound from in front of the microphone and some sound from the sides. Less susceptible to feedback in high volume settings. • Condenser cartridge has a lightweight, sensitive diaphragm. Precisely and smoothly captures sound nuances. • Powered by AA battery or phantom power supply. • Internal shock mount for reduced handling noise. • Durable metal construction. • On/off switch for onstage control.

The stunning looks of this microphone combined with the classic sound of the double ribbon filament and the reliability expected of today's modern equipment make this a very desirable microphone.

The Oktava ML52 is suitable for use in any situation where a warm and rounded sound is required, The ribbon sound lending it an air of nostalgia whilst competing with modern condenser designs in terms of frequency response. The virtually non existent noise floor means that, used in conjunction with a good pre-amp. it is an ideal mic for digital recording.

As a true cosine or figure of eight microphone the ML52 has many advantages and uses in broadcast and installation due to the negligible sound it picks up from the sides, as well as 90 degree stereo recording. The figure of eight pattern is almost completely uniform at all frequencies.

The ML52 is eminently suited to string and brass instruments giving a sparkling but never harsh overall sound and also gives a particularly pleasing smooth sound to vocals.

The advent of the condenser microphone helped to make the world forget how good ribbon microphones could be. The ML52 has been designed to show once again that the ribbon should never have been ignored or forgotten.
