Microtech Gefell UMT 70 S Multipattern Studio Condenser Microphone with Accessories Bundle (Satin Nickel)

Microtech Gefell UMT 70 S Multipattern Studio Condenser Microphone with Accessories Bundle (Satin Nickel)

Delivered in a suitcase with a shockmount, a pop screen, and an XLR cable, the satin nickel Microtech Gefell UMT 70 S is a multipattern large-diaphragm studio condenser microphone designed to produce a clean, transparent sound devoid of coloration for vocals and instruments in recording studios, radio stations, and TV broadcasting. Its transformerless circuitry yields a slew of benefits including excellent transient response, high RFI rejection, wide dynamic range, and low self-noise.

The dual-capacitor design utilizes two gold-plated PVC diaphragms and a single brass back plate to offer omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8 polar patterns for flexible sound pickup. The -10 dB pad enables distortion-free capture of loud sources such as drums, percussion, and speaker cabinets, and the switchable bass cut offsets proximity effect by applying a 10 dB reduction at 90 Hz.

The UMT 70 S operates on 48V phantom power and features a 3-pin XLR output connector. It is compatible with several optional mic holders and suspensions.

• Designed for clean, transparent sound reproduction free of coloration
• Well suited for instrumental and vocal soloists in radio and television broadcasting and any other kind of accurate production
• High sensitivity and improved signal-to-noise ratio
• Pressure-gradient transducer is a dual capacitor design with a single brass back plate and two large-diameter gold-plated plastic diaphragms
• Varying the polarization voltage applied to the diaphragms results in three directional characteristics-omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8, which are selectable via a ring at the bottom of the microphone s head grille
• Omnidirectional pattern shows a slight 2 dB rise in the vicinity of 10.5 kHz while the bass response is perfectly flat
• Cardioid and figure-8 patterns exhibit a smooth presence boost rising to about 4 dB in the 7 kHz range and a slight roll-off at low frequencies
• The newly developed transformerless circuit design substitutes the previous transformer for a symmetrical output stage yielding a superb transient response combined with a high RFI rejection
• The circuit technology also achieves a wider dynamic range by lowering the self-noise floor and increasing the headroom for loud signals
• Switchable -10 dB pad increases the maximum SPL handling, ideal when placing the mic near very loud sound sources
• Low-frequency sensitivity reduction attenuates 90 Hz by approximately 10 dB to suppress the proximity effect when close-miking with the cardioid or figure-8 patterns
• Standard 3-pin XLR output connector
• Operates on 48V phantom power
• Includes a Rycote InVision INV 7HG MKIII shockmount, an XLR microphone cable, and a pop screen
• Includes a suitcase for safe storage and easy transport
