APPLICATIONS
The M 88 offers both a wide frequency response and rugged construction making an ideal combination for many applications. In the studio and live use its high SPL capability allows the microphone to be placed close to loud sound sources such as kick drum and bass guitar. It is also equally impressive as a vocal microphone or for brass and windwood instruments. The TourGroup version (M 88 TG) has a reinforced basket to withstand rough handling when being used for more demanding applications. The M 88 is often used in a broadcast environment as an announcers or EFP microphone.
 

NOTE: This recent version of the M88NC microphone has an XLR3 connector. The older grey/metalic body version was originally manufactured with a locking 3 pin DIN connector, which are still available to purchase
