New from Microtech Gefell is the M 1030, a large diaphragm studio condenser microphone featuring a cardioid pattern and ultra-low noise performance. Designed for vocals or narration, as well as instrumental recording (solo or in stereo pairs) on guitars, piano, percussion, wind and string instruments, this side-address design exhibits a smooth frequency response with a slight presence boost in the 8k to 14k Hz range.
The M 1030's cardioid polar response exhibits a high degree of rejection for sounds impinging from the rear or sides of the microphone, providing excellent isolation from nearby instruments or noisy sound sources. The M 1030 operates on standard 48VDC phantom voltage and has a green LED on the mic’s front face that indicates the mic is powered up.
The studio condenser microphone M 1030 combines modern large diaphragm capsule technology with the latest in semiconductor circuit topology. The size of the microphone housing is optimized with regard to the expectations of a large diaphragm microphone for studio applications. The micro- phone is specifically designed to meet the needs of professional and semi-professional users who demand the highest performance.
The microphones are ideally suited for universal miking applications in broadcast and sound studios. Applications include vocalists, announcers, dialog pickup and as spot microphones for recording guitars, keyboard, percussion, wind and string instruments.
The pick-up pattern is perpendicular to the direction of the microphone axis (side addressed). The model number and pick-up pattern symbol mark the front of the microphone. The green light- emitting diode (LED) inside the protection grid operates as optical ready indicator.
Under the grille, the large-diameter capsule feeds an electronic impedance converter based on a newly designed circuit topology. This transformerless design reduces the noise floor to a low (7 dBA, DIN EN 60 651) while raising the maximum output capacity, resulting in a 135dB dynamic range. RFI susceptibility is very low. To reduce sensitivity to mechanical impact and structure-borne noise, the mic capsule and electronics are elastically suspended inside the compact metal housing.
M 1030 ships with a wooden case and swivel stand mount. An optional EA 92 elastic suspension (shown in photo) with A 93 adapter is available to further attenuate noise in extreme situations.
