Made by hand in Heilbronn, Germany, the Beyerdynamic MC 930 true condenser microphone has a natural, balanced sound. Thanks to its detailed bass response and high-resolution trebles, the MC 930 is perfect for use with a wide range of different sound sources. Whether for acoustic guitars, piano, hi-hats, overhead, choirs, orchestras, vocals or solo instruments of all kinds – the MC 930 is impressive when used with almost any sound source.
Hittin Switches
Thanks to its switchable attenuation (-15 dB), the MC 930 can also be used with loud instruments. Disruptive bass frequencies and low-mid frequencies that are 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.
A Cardioid Pattern with Specific Advantages
The MC 930 boasts an almost frequency-independent cardioid polar pattern. This means it priorities 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.
