The Beyerdynamic Opus 88 condenser microphone is a perfect choice for close miking toms and snare drums and is designed to excel at professional sound reinforcement or recording. The snare drum is hit most often the hardest and produces a very complex sound pattern. The Opus 88 mic has been optimized for the snare both electrically and physically to capture a precise sound. With its patented microphone clamp with integrated preamplifier and 3-pin XLR plug the Opus 88 can easily and quickly be mounted to the rim. The short flexible gooseneck and the horizontal swivel joint ensures optimal positioning. Requires phantom power.
