Overview

A digital recording power tool.

The Beyerdynamic MC 834 condenser microphone features an extremely linear frequency curve and a frequency response of 20 to 20,000Hz. Due to its cardioid polar pattern, the MC 834 mic has a high gain-before-feedback. Without pre-attenuation the microphone has a SPL capability of 130dB, with pre-attenuation up to 150dB. The MC 834 offers a dynamic that cannot be reached by any digital recording system. The microphone has a balanced output and can be powered by phantom power between 12 and 52 V. The MC 834 is a universal studio microphone to be used for digital recording, both lead and backup vocals, voice-overs, miking of pianos, strings, and brass instruments. It is also suited to the home recording artist.
