★The punchy, vibrant sound is recorded as is. The MTP 440 DM is designed for snare drums, brass instruments, and amplifiers. Equipped with a high-performance capsule, it delivers superior sound in both live and studio settings. ● To give your snare drum a fantastic sound, use a snare-specific microphone. The MTP 440 DM features a high-performance capsule that delivers a vibrant sound. It's ideal for miking snare drums. The focused cardioid pattern keeps the snare sound focused, whether live or in the studio. ●Transform your amp into a fantastic sound. Is your amp going to be an 11? The MTP 440 DM also reproduces high-SPL sources like amps with high clarity and perfect detail. A slight bass roll-off and midrange clarity create a punchy, unique sound, delivering rich tones in cabs of all sizes. ● Achieve fantastic sound from your wind instruments. Record wind instruments with crystal-clear sound. Wind instruments generate high sound pressure levels, and some equipment cannot handle this pressure, but the MTP 440 DM has proven its crystal-clear sound quality on countless stages. ●Long lifespan, high durability. The enclosure uses highly durable zinc die-cast parts to withstand impacts such as microphone drops and accidental hits. Rubber suspension protects the capsule and minimizes noise generated by the structure. ● Cardioid Polar Pattern. Focused on instruments, the cardioid polar pattern primarily picks up sound from the front of the microphone and attenuates sound from directly behind the MTP 440 DM. Unwanted reflections and background noise are effectively suppressed. ■Product Specifications ◎Microphone Type: Dynamic, Moving Coil ◎Acoustic Operating Principle: Pressure Gradient Transducer ◎Directional pattern: Cardioid ◎Frequency range: 60–16,000 Hz ◎Sensitivity: 2.5 mV/Pa, -52 dBV/Pa ◎Internal impedance: 500 Ω ◎Connector: Gold-plated 3-pin XLR ◎Microphone Dimensions: 39 dia. x 159 mm, 1.53 dia. x 6.25 in ◎Microphone Weight: 280 g, 9.88 oz
