TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik is introducing the new M81 universal dynamic cardioid microphone at Muzikmesse 2012. TELEFUNKEN’s new M81 has a more linear frequency response than the company’s popular M80, resulting in a microphone with the distinct clarity TELEFUNKEN has become famous for, but with a different depth and body to the tone, and less of the M80's characteristic high-end response.
Telefunken Quotes:
"When recording acoustic guitars and percussion instruments every string, every skin has its own resonance. Recording with open air mics sometimes loses that resonance and tonality of the instrument and affects the song's journey into creation as a whole. We don't have those problems with Telefunken mics."
– Michael Glabicki, Rusted Root
