Madonna's Microphones
Madonna has used the Sennheiser SKM 5200 wireless microphone during several tours, including Sticky & Sweet, MDNA, and Rebel Heart, as seen in the YouTube video "Madonna - La Vie En Rose (Live in Stockholm, Rebel Heart Tour)" by Chamuyero. She typically opts for custom versions of the microphone, often in silver chrome, rather than the standard black. Notably, she used a chrome-gold customized version during her Super Bowl performance.
"Madonna’s performance of ‘Living For Love’ was highlighted with her singing through a Sennheiser SKM 5200 transmitter coupled with an MD 5005 capsule, along with a Sennheiser 2000 IEM wireless system for monitoring."
"For this globetrotting tour, Madonna's four SKM 3072 handhelds are run through a passive switcher to quickly reassign them to both front of house and monitors simultaneously."
Madonna posted an Instagram story during her Madame X tour where the Sennheiser MD 9235 is visible in her hand.
In this screen grab from the video: https://youtu.be/9ODgYFJ_eDU Madonna can be seen recording Skin into a Sony c800g at 6:51.
Madonna is documented using a Neumann U87 Ai microphone while recording a song. The session was captured in an image as part of her announcement of publishing new songs and marking her return to recording studios. The setup included a pop filter to enhance response and eliminate plosives.
