The M-Audio PULSAR II MATCHED PAIR 2 x Acoustically Matched Pencil Condenser Microphones. Breathe new life into stereo miking applications including drum overheads, acoustic guitar, piano, and room recording.
The M-Audio Pulsar II Matched Pair delivers a boxed set of Pulsar II small-capsule condenser microphones that are within +/-1dB of each other—from 20Hz to 20kHz. Designed in the USA by the creators of the multi-award-winning Sputnik, the distinctive-sounding Pulsar II is hand assembled in small quantities to insure peak performance. Featuring a solid-brass backplate and other top-quality components, these modern classics breathe new life into stereo miking applications including drum overheads, acoustic guitar, piano, and room recording. The Pulsar II easily adapts to many recording and live situations. The 12dB/octave 80Hz high-pass filter reduces low-frequency rumble and the potential for overloading mic preamps with low-frequency signals. The -10dB switchable attenuation pad and thermal diaphragm treatment also allow it to handle high SPLs for its class. The Pulsar II includes a useful t-shaped stereo mounting bracket for XY and ORTF recording right out of the box.
