Description

The C518 is a professional miniature drum and percussion microphone built for precise, focused sound capture in live and recording applications. Designed for close-miking demanding percussion performances, it delivers clear, controlled results while keeping unwanted bleed from neighboring instruments to a minimum.

  • Cardioid polar pattern provides focused drum and percussion pickup while minimizing overspill from nearby instruments.
  • Integrated mounting clamp securely attaches the microphone to a wide range of drums and percussion instruments for stable close-miking.
  • Detachable microphone cable simplifies installation, maintenance, and servicing for convenient professional use.
  • Full-metal housing with integrated shock mount protects the microphone capsule from impact and heavy playing conditions.
  • Included gooseneck holder maintains an optimal microphone position for consistent and precise sound capture.
  • Continuously adjustable vise-type clamp provides secure positioning on drum and percussion rims for flexible microphone placement.
  • Snap-on stabilizer keeps the gooseneck securely positioned for reliable and consistent microphone alignment.
  • Switchable bass cut allows frequency response adjustment for greater control over low-frequency content.
  • Mini-XLR cable and A400 adapter plate support convenient connection and mounting with compatible PT40, PT45, PT450, and PT470 wireless body-pack transmitters.
