Description

The Neumann KK 13 is an omnidirectional capsule for the Miniature Clip Mic MCM system, designed to capture acoustic instruments with an open, natural sound. Its pressure-transducer design provides extended bass and midrange reproduction without proximity effect, making it particularly suited to close miking on quiet stages and in recording environments where feedback and source separation are not primary concerns.

A layered electret construction gives each capsule component a dedicated role, with the modules assembled by hand in Germany. This approach supports consistent tonal performance between capsules, helping engineers achieve a predictable starting point during setup. The titanium housing combines low weight with durability for regular use.

As a replaceable component within the modular MCM system, the KK 13 supports flexible instrument-miking configurations using the appropriate system mounts and connection accessories. Its broad frequency response and high level-handling capability accommodate delicate passages and strong instrumental dynamics.

Features

Omnidirectional Pickup
Captures acoustic instruments with an open sound, suited to quiet stages and recording situations where isolation is less critical.

No Proximity Effect
The pressure-transducer design avoids proximity-related bass buildup during close miking.

Layered Electret Construction
Individually designed capsule modules support acoustic performance and consistent manufacturing.

Consistent Tonal Response
Closely consistent sound between capsules helps reduce the need for corrective EQ when establishing a microphone setup.

Wide Frequency Response
Captures low-frequency fundamentals and high-frequency detail across the audible spectrum.

High Level-Handling Capability
Accommodates strong instrumental dynamics as well as quieter musical passages.

Titanium Housing
A lightweight, durable housing supports use in demanding performance and recording environments.

Modular MCM Integration
The replaceable capsule integrates with the Neumann Miniature Clip Mic system and its instrument-mounting and connection options.

Hand-Assembled in Germany
The individual capsule modules are assembled by hand in Germany.
