Schoeps M934B Omni/Cardioid Capsule (Vintage)

Classic small diaphragm condenser capsule, switchable between omnidirectional and cardioid polar patterns. Fits the Schoeps M221B microphone amplifier.

Introduced in 1955, the Schoeps M 221A was only made for a few months before it was replaced by the more common M 221 B. (One of the main differences between the two is the threads that connect the capsule to the body; these are male threads on the 'A' type capsule, and female on the 'B' type).

This microphone is a classic small-diaphragm tube condenser that has become a staple of high-end studios. Widely used for live orchestral recording, where capturing every detail of the sound and dynamics is paramount. Beautiful on acoustic guitars, it also works wonders on acoustic piano. A sweet, musical sound, silky top end, and excellent sensitivity for capturing fine detail and nuances.
