The Sennheiser e838 handheld dynamic microphone gives your vocals the presence and full bottom end to cut through any mix and fill the room. The e838's cardioid pattern works to prevent feedback on stage as well as provide a nice bass boost when held close up, and the microphone's inherent high frequency boost lends a clarity to the treble range that's more characteristic of a condenser microphone than anything else. As well, the capsule in the e838 is shockmounted, ensuring that handling noise will not be a factor as you perform.
