I2 Guitar Microphone

SKU: I2GUITAR
Clear

$366.00

Features

I2 Instrument Microphone tailored for guitars and center hole instruments, with low-profile mount.

Description

The I2 Guitar Microphone has been engineered from the ground up for smooth frequency response, low noise, and precise polar patterns with deep nulls and natural on- and off-axis response. Its tiny size makes it perfect for distance miking that is invisible on camera. Flexible new close miking techniques are aided by Countryman’s Guitar Mount, which positions the microphone for excellent pickup on center hole instruments.

Unparalled Precision

The I2 maintains excellent pattern control and frequency response at all angles, for uncolored recordings and reduced feedback issues.

Complete Control

The instrument-specific mounts for the I2 provide positioning freedom, allowing you to direct the microphone pattern to capture the natural tone of your instrument

Vibration Damping

I2 Instument Microphone mounts are designed to minimize vibration noise, including the use of viscoelastic damping materials to reduce transmitted shocks and key noise for clear audio recordings.

How can I mic a saxophone?

The I2 Brass Instrument Mount has vibration-damping jaws that tightly grip the bell, with an adjustable wire that can be positioned at the center of the bell or placed to capture sound through the keys.

How can I mic a violin / viola?

The I2 Violin Mount positions the microphone between the bridge and tailpiece in a secure, vibration isolating mount. Point the microphone toward the violin body.

How can I mic a cello / double bass?

The positioning arm on the I2 Cello Mount allows for a variety of microphone positions, including under the bridge or over the F-hole. Make sure the silver (active) side is pointed toward the body.
