Product overview

THE DIFFERENCE IN YOUR PERFORMANCE

01 / BALANCE

A smoother top end

A more restrained high-frequency character than the M80 helps complement brighter voices and instruments.

02 / BODY

Defined midrange

Bring weight to thinner sources while keeping their musical detail easy to hear.

03 / VERSATILITY

Beyond lead vocals

A practical choice for guitar amps, rack and floor toms, saxophone and other brass instruments.

01 / THE M81 CHARACTER

Clarity with a little more weight.

The M81 shares the M80’s articulate midrange and reduced proximity effect, with a top end that is pulled back for a flatter overall balance. It is a useful starting point when a bright vocal or guitar sound needs body without losing definition.

A low-mass diaphragm and custom-wound transformer sit at the heart of the design. The supercardioid pickup helps separate the source from surrounding sound, making the M81 useful in close-miked sessions and on busy stages.

02 / ONE MIC. MANY SESSIONS.

Follow the sound.

Move from a singer to a guitar cabinet, then onto toms or horns. The M81’s combination of a smooth response, detailed mids and dynamic-microphone toughness makes it a versatile tool to keep close at hand.

YOUR SOUND. YOUR COLOUR.

Make it yours.

Choose from the 16 colours and finishes in the selector above, from classic stage looks to bright colours, wood finishes and metallics. Every option is one M81 handheld microphone.

Your selection sets the finish, price and availability. The range image shows the choices together; your order contains the selected microphone.
