About this listing
The Beyerdynamic MC 930 Microphone is a small diaphragm true cardioid condenser microphone designed to provide an enormous versatility due to its neutral sound and accurate design. Perfect for miking choirs, orchestras and solo instruments... you name it and the MC 930 delivers!
The MC 930 can undoubtedly be called a universal talent. Handmade at the company headquarters in Heilbronn, Germany, this true condenser microphone naturally captures a wide range of sound sources. Outstanding technical features, a clever design including switchable pre-attenuation and a switchable low-cut filter make the MC 930 a flexible companion in the studio and live on stage.
An acoustically balanced allrounderThe MC 930 small diaphragm true condenser microphone combines versatility and sound quality in equal measure. The largely linear frequency response ensures natural sound recording. Whether for acoustic guitars, piano, hi-hats, overhead, choirs, orchestras, vocals or solo instruments of all kinds – the MC 930 is a great choice for almost every sound source. The MC 930 is also available as a matched pair. In addition, they can be used for professional stereo recordings using the XY or ORTF technique.
As easy as flipping a switchThanks to its switchable attenuation (-15 dB), the MC 930 can also be used with loud instruments. Disruptive bass frequencies and low-mid frequencies caused, for example, by impact sounds or proximity effects, can be minimised by the switchable low-cut filter of 6 dB/octave at 250 Hz. This microphone works with 11–52 V phantom power.
Fast, faster, ​​​​​​​MC 930The MC 930 includes a handmade true condenser capsule. The gold-vapourised diaphragm used in this microphone has excellent vibration and impulse behaviour. This makes signals sound natural and precise throughout the session. The excellent transient response allows percussive sounds to be reproduced extremely quickly.
Powerful for use with audio interfaces and mixing consolesThe MC 930 has one of the most powerful outputs (30 mV/Pa) among comparable microphones. This is a huge advantage, because it requires very little amplification.
A cardioid pattern with specific advantagesThe MC 930 has an almost frequency-independent cardioid polar pattern. This means it prioritises sound from the front over sound from the sides. When it comes to sound from the back, the cardioid pattern offers the best possible attenuation. This means that this microphone is less susceptible to crosstalk, i.e. from other nearby sound sources. Thanks to all of these features, the MC 930 can be used in the studio as well as live on stage.
Quality Made In GermanyHandmade in Germany to a high quality standard, the MC 930 true condenser microphone is distinguished by the workmanship that beyerdynamic is known for. Acoustically relevant components such as the true condenser capsule, the system suspension and the counter electrode are all produced in-house. This unique process allows us to produce products of consistently high quality and makes each MC 930 one of a kind.
A hard shell protecting a clever coreThe high-quality true condenser capsule is protected by a durable solid metal housing that also has a significant effect on the sound thanks to its strategically placed holes. The microphone head includes a robust and acoustically neutral sintered disc. Both the switchable pre-attenuation and switchable low-cut filter are integrated into the housing. Thanks to its low weight and compact dimensions, it is quick and easy to position. This microphone now comes in a sturdy hard case.
