The new Schertler DYN-G-P48 is a dynamic contact microphone with Class A electronics, fully balanced and active, and is ideally suited for use in solo and orchestral ensemble settings. Featuring Schertler SA's proprietary "Stat of the Art" active filtering technology, the DYN-G-P48 captures the best of the guitar's sound. This leads to more "immediate" results for the user, with an incredibly subtle and fine sound, with only minimal adjustments. The DYN -G- P48 has a new, elegant and lightweight design, which makes it even less obtrusive and more discreet for the musician. The microphone is supplied with Schertler's own cable that is both robust and torsion-resistant. This new cable has been designed to withstand the rigours of everyday use while delivering the best possible performance results. A balanced XLR connector allows direct connection to an acoustic guitar amplifier equipped with a Phantom power supply and balanced XLR input, or the mic input on a mixing console. The DYN-G-P48 mic works very effectively with a wide range of amplifier systems and can be easily and safely applied to the surface of even the most prestigious and delicate instruments using a varnish-friendly adhesive paste. Note: This microphone is active and requires a 48V Phantom power supply.Schertler's flagship DYN transducer series was launched over 20 years ago. Two decades later, as microphone technology has evolved, Schertler AG has redesigned the DYN series to meet today's even more demanding recording needs than in the past. The new DYN-P48 series retains the best features of the original DYN microphones while incorporating the "Stat of the Art" active filter technology that brings better sound quality, a lighter and more elegant design, and a more user-friendly operation for the end user.
