The MB1000 is a wide-range moving coil dynamic mic with

a cardioid pickup pattern. It features a high-output neodymium

magnet for maximum performance with all equipment.

The MB1000 is designed specifically for close-up vocal and

instrumental use. A special internal shock mount system minimizes

handling and case noise. The microphone also features

the MagnaLockâ„¢ on/off switch for silent operation. The switch

may be locked in the “on" position to prevent accidental turnoff

during use.

The cardioid pickup pattern of the MB1000 is useful in reducing

unwanted background noise and controlling feedback, especially

when used extremely close. Miking instruments or vocalists at

very close range also effectively reduces “leakage" from one

performer to the next. Low-frequency noise is also reduced by

a low-frequency roll-off of sounds more than one foot distant

from the microphone.

The high-output neodymium design and low-mass diaphragm

and voice coil assure excellent signal-to-noise ratios with microphone

mixers, tape recorders, and other electronic inputs. The

MB1000 is capable of undistorted output even in very intense

sound fields.

Enclosed in a rugged die-cast housing, the MB1000 features

a special, baked-on “Midnight Blues" finish. In addition to being

attractive and comfortable to hold, this special finish further

reduces handling noise and increases durability.

A multi-stage windscreen reduces wind noise and “popping"

when performers work extremely close. The included microphone

clamp permits mounting on any microphone stand

with 5/8"-27 threads.
