Nice microphone recommended

Ottimo microfono ma occhio all'attacco.
Il microfono è eccezionale, suona benissimo e ha tutte le frequenze che servono. Solo un paio di cose, si tratta di un condensatore e quindi ad alti volumi scordatevi di farvi mettere il vostro strumento in spia e soprattutto l'attacco del microfono è un mini XLR con una potenza superiore a quella della phantom, va quindi abbinato al riduttore amplificato della AKG e non altri tipi di riduttori, io non lo sapevo e ho rpeso un normale riduttore da XLR a mini XLR ma non funziona, vuole proprio il suo cioè il cavo adattore phantom MPA VL che non è in dotazione e va comprato a parte.

Nice little mic
I installed this on my bodhran (inside the rim). I’ve had a few problems that I haven’t figured out yet. I learned that I have to connect to mini XLR to regular XLR with an adapter cable. I initially tried a mini XLR to 1/4” and that didn’t work at all. Another issue is that one friend’s sound board didn’t need to have phantom power - this worked without phantom. Everyone else’s works with phantom. So it takes some trial and error but I’m learning. I get a nice, strong signal with a lot of low end, which is exactly what I want from my drum. Very happy with how hidden the installation is - all the audience sees is an XLR cable. It’s nice to not be stuck sitting in a chair trying to point my drum towards a microphone that is picking up all other noises.
