Telefunken Elektroakustik DD5 Drum Microphone Pack

The Telefunken Elektroakustik DD5 Drum Microphone Pack has assembled the three unique voices of its TEC Award winning Dynamic Series microphone line (M82, M80-SH, M81-SH) for drum recording and live performance applications.

The Telefunken Elektroakustik DD5 Drum Microphone Pack consists of the M82 handling kick drum duties, the M80-SH on snare, and the M81-SH for toms. The Telefunken Elektroakustik DD5 ships in the heavy-duty hard shell FC85 flight case and includes multiple drum mounts (M782, M784 and M785) and a SGMC-5R five-meter XLR cable with a right angle female connector for each microphone in the set.

Telefunken Elektroakustik M80-SH Snare Drum Microphone

Telefunken Elektroakustik created the M80-SH for use on snare drum and vocal applications where a lower profile microphone with right angle XLR cable is needed. The Telefunken Elektroakustik M80-SH is the same exact circuit as the Telefunken Elektroakustik M80 Standard, housed in a shorter microphone body with a built-on stand mount. The wide frequency response and higher SPL capabilities of the Telefunken Elektroakustik M80-SH offer the user a superior alternative to the midrange-laden character of many of the industry’s standard dynamic microphones. A tight cardioid polar pattern and a frequency response boasting a subtle rise in the high end result in a microphone that is equally suitable for snare drum, vocals or instruments on both the stage and the studio. The Telefunken Elektroakustik M80-SH is finished on both the headgrille and body with a durable, textured black powder coat.

Telefunken Elektroakustik M81-SH Tom Microphone

The Telefunken Elektroakustik M81-SH was designed with the goal of developing a mic that would not only complement the Telefunken Elektroakustik M80-SH, but also stand out in a universe filled with dynamic microphone options. Building off many of the strengths of the Telefunken Elektroakustik M80, the Telefunken Elektroakustik M81-SH retains the same minimal proximity effect, superior feedback rejection, and an articulate mid-range. However, with the Telefunken Elektroakustik M81-SH, the top end is pulled back a bit, yielding a flatter overall frequency response. This combination results in a microphone with a wealth of body and clarity, making it a great tool for fattening up toms, percussion and horns, or taming brighter vocals or thinner sounding sources. The Telefunken Elektroakustik M81-SH is identical to the Telefunken Elektroakustik M81 in circuit, but housed in a shorter microphone body with a built-on stand mount, and finished in a durable, textured dark gray powder coat on both the headgrille and body.

Telefunken Elektroakustik M82 Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone

The Telefunken Elektroakustik M82 is a robust large diaphragm end-address dynamic microphone that has been designed for kick drum and vocal broadcast applications. Hand-assembled in CT, USA, the Telefunken Elektroakustik M82 features two independently functioning EQ switches: KICK EQ and HIGH BOOST, which in turn offer four unique voices. The Telefunken Elektroakustik M82’s KICK EQ switch engages a passive filter that reduces some of the lower mid-range frequencies (centered around 350Hz) commonly cut when processing a kick drum. The HIGH BOOST switch tilts the upper mid-range and high frequencies (starting around 2kHz with a 6dB boost by 10kHz) to allow for extra articulation. In the flat setting (both switches off), the Telefunken Elektroakustik M82 is equally suited for vocals, guitar amps, and brass.
