The legendary Sennheiser MD 421-II is one of the best-known microphones for recording, live music and broadcasting in the world! And Sennheiser is offering an incredible 49% on the MD 421-II throughout the month of October 2020.
With the dynamic MD 421-II, users will own a true all-rounder microphone for almost any situation. Originally introduced in 1960 as the MD 421, this cardioid microphone classic ensures clear, natural sound while offering effective feedback rejection. Thanks to its large diaphragm, the MD 421-II has a wide, condenser-like frequency response of 30 – 17,000 Hz.
It is fitted with a five-position bass roll-off switch (from M for music to S for speech), which helps to compensate for the proximity effect where needed and reduces impact sound. The filter can also be dialed in if the user prefers to place an emphasis on the higher frequencies, as may be the case with acoustic guitars or speech applications such as podcasting and streaming.
The MD 421-II has also become a classic for recording guitar and bass amps and drums – toms and kick especially but also snares, and it has even been seen in overhead use. It also does a great job on all kind of percussion, saxophone, and brass, and is often used as an announcer or vocal microphone (In countries like France, the MD 421, together with its even older brother, the omni-directional MD 21, have remained standard tools in broadcast until today).
At least one MD 421 microphone (more often a pair), very old or brand-new, is always found in almost every rental warehouse, music club or studio around the world. A true workhorse.
The Sennheiser HD 200 PRO monitoring headphones are closed, circumaural workhorses for studio, allowing users to focus on what they are doing – no matter whether they are practicing, recording, playing or monitoring a gig or simply want to listen to their favorite music. The HD 200 PRO delivers powerful studio sound with wide dynamics, while effectively attenuating ambient noise. Its soft earpads and ergonomic design ensure the comfort needed for long music sessions.
The HD 200 PRO headphones are fitted with a rugged, single-sided cable (2m) with 3.5mm jack connector; an adaptor to 6.3mm jack is included.
