To pick up sound from brass instruments such as saxophones, trumpets, trombones or horns, a microphone really has to function at a high level, a requirement where the TG I 57 premium clip-on condenser microphone succeeds with flying colours. It can operate at extremely high maximum sound levels and reliably suppresses unwanted noise as a result of its cardioid polar pattern. The easy to mount clamp with gooseneck for optimal positioning protects the instrument's surface and provides a reliable hold. For wired operation at a phantom powering input, the optional MA-PVA is necessary. Cable length is 1.1 m. Features: Flexible gooseneck Cardioid polar pattern ensures high gain before feedback Rugged construction TG Pin Out: The TG I57 is compatible with all TG 1000 Beltpack Transmitters that use the TG Pin Out (grey ON/OFF switch). This allows the combination with every system using the TG Pin Out and therefore offers maximum flexibility. Specifications: Transducer type . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
