Matched pair of Beyerdynamic MCE 530. The MCE 530 is a cardioid condenser microphone suitable for both project studios and semiprofessionals. It consists of a lightweight, but rugged, plastic casing strengthened with carbon fibres. Its small and short design permits flexible and unobtrusive positioning.
The microphone is powered by phantom power between 11 and 48 V. The frequency response of the MCE 530 has been optimised for miking instruments and choirs. Using the WS 53 wind screen the MCE 530 is an ideal speaker's microphone in churches and halls.
