ME-406 - instrument condenser microphone

Instrumental cardioid condenser microphone ME-406 has been developed for use in cases when it is necessary to a wide frequency range, high output level, rapid response and compact design. Thanks to a broad range of frequencies (from 20 Hz to 20 kHz) ME-406 able to fully transfer the sound of an instrument, at the same time, its high orientation allows you to minimize the unwanted noise.
