TG I53c Condenser Instrument Microphone, Cardioid

Inconspicuously small, but incredibly robust!

The very wide frequency response of the TG I 53 opens up a variety of possible applications.

From hi-hats and overheads to percussion, string and brass instruments and even choir singing ‚ this condenser microphone with its subtle treble boost and excellent detail reproduction really excels.

Because of its high sensitivity, it is also suitable for longer microphone placement distances, for example for large sound sources with complex radiation patterns. Further advantages: it is both light and rugged due to the carbon fibre reinforced housing.

Its soft treble boost enables the condenser microphone to excel, particularly when it's used with an acoustic guitar.
