A new range of instrument mic for on stage recording of acoustic instruments.

The SB21 Lanen Sax, Brass & Percussion mic is designed for alto saxophones, tenor saxophones, trumpets, trombones, tubas, French horns and any other brass instrument. But there’s more! Because of its adjustable clamp, the SB21 Lanen diaphragm mic can be used to record percussion instruments such as djembes, toms, snare drums, congas and tambors. With that extra high acoustic gain and the Larsen effect a distant memory, the magnificence of your instrument is there for all to hear.

A specially adapted clamp for brass and percussion insulates the mic from vibration and at the same time keeps your instrument safe from scratches and dents. The flexible gooseneck gives you access to the very heart of the sound and with just a swivel, the mic can be placed right next to the drum beat.

"Of all the components in a mic, the one that has to be infallible is the diaphragm. For the new Prodipe instrument mic range we have perfected an electret diaphragm here in France which can handle up to 140dB. And with this level of performance, our mic will preserve the full harmonic envelope that adds warmth to your instrument’s sound.

We have also spent a considerable amount of time thinking about the best way to attach the mic to your instrument. In a bid to optimise the recording environment we have designed a purpose built clamp for each type of instrument." .
