M82

The M82 is a robust, end-address microphone that features a large dynamic diaphragm with superb low frequency capabilities. Though it was designed to capture fat and punchy kick drum tones, the two on-board EQ switches make the M82 equally suited for a multitude of sources including vocals, percussion, guitar and bass amplifiers, organ, and brass instruments. Both the KICK EQ and HIGH BOOST switches function independently and give the user the ability to tailor the microphone’s response to the source with ease. The M82 is hand-assembled and tested in our American facility.

“Everyone knows that Steely Dan is famous for their incredible accomplishments in recorded audio,” commented Dowdle. “Living up to the expectations of such an iconic duo, who are revered in the music industry for their attention to detail, is challenging to say the least. With TELEFUNKEN’s new M82 mics I was able to capture and reproduce the kick, as well as the bass guitar in ways that truly emulated the original Steely Dan recordings. The filter switches on the mic itself, along with the internal shock mount system, proved to be an invaluable asset.”
