Hard to find a better deal than these two mics. A matched pair of cardioid condensers that are perfect for drum overheads and also sound terrific for mono (or stereo) acoustic guitars.
Great also for lots of percussion duties (but not as mallets) and for general room mic duties.
Ideal for choral and ensemble - both live and recorded.
In the box:
- 2 x NT5 microphones
- 2 x RM5 stand adapters
- 2 x WS5 windsocks
- 1 x RC5 protective carry case
