Sennheiser E 908 D condenser instrument microphone
Product no: S-500205 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The Sennheiser E 908 D is a condenser microphone for drums and percussion. The microphone has a cardioid pickup pattern, can handle a high sound pressure and has a frequency range of 40 to 20,000 Hz. These properties make it ideally suited for nearly all types of percussion. The microphone is delivered including a drum clamp with which you can connect it to the rim. Subsequently, you will be able to optimally position the microphone thanks to the flexible gooseneck.

Integrated shockmount of the E 908 D

A condenser microphone is very sensitive and therefore beautifully registers the sound, but ambient sounds are also picked up. In order to eliminate unwanted vibrations and ambient sounds via the gooseneck, the E 908 D has an integrated shockmount. This results in a lively, clear and open sound.
