908 B / 908 D / 908 B ew / 908 T ew

These microphones are professional pre-polarised

condenser microphones. An extended dynamic range and

a well balanced frequency response deliver an out-

standing signal quality with excellent projection and the

lowest possible distortion. An excellent directivity across

the whole frequency range enables the mics to handle the

highest signal levels without feedback.

The microphone 908 D has been developed especially

for drums and percussion. The 908 B is designed for

wired recording of wind instruments, but because of its

instrument clamp it is also paricularly suitable for drums

with suspension systems or congas. There are two special

types of microphones for use with ew bodypack

transmitters: 908 B ew for saxophone, 908 T ew für

trumpets, flugelhorns and trombones.

Due to their phantom powering capability, the mics are

especially suitable for use with professional mixing

consoles. Alternatively, they can be used with any

evolution bodypack transmitter for wireless applications.

Extensive damping and shock mounting isolates the

capsules from extraneous vibrations, impact and handling

noise

The long, flexible goosenecks enable the mics to be

optimally positioned on the instrument.

Positioning the microphone

Wind instruments ( 908 B / 908 B ew / 908 T ew)

Position Resulting sound Commentary

Reduced ambient

noise

Use the MZH 908 B

clamp to attach the

microphone to the

bell of the

instrument.

To reduce ambient

noise (at the

expense of the true

“Saxophone

sound”) direct the

microphone into the

bell (as illustrated).

Clear, powerful

sound

Balanced, natural

sound

For a Saxophone,

the microphone

should normally be

directed partly

towards the bell and

partly towards the

body of the

instument.

Drums / Percussions ( 908 D)

In order to prevent interference due to crosstalk between

adjacent sound sources, try to position the microphone so

that the interfering sound source is located in the angle

area of the highest cancellation of the microphone

(approx. 180°; see polar diagram).

Position Resulting sound Commentary

More fundamental,

little overtones

Position on the

drum:

3–5 cm above the

drumskin, directed

towards the center

of the drumskin, the

fundamental to

overtones ratio can

be adjusted by

changing the angle

of the microphone.

The most balanced

results are obtained

at an angle of

30–60°.

Less fundamental,

many overtones

Pronounced

proximity effect

Optional:

tangential position

of the gooseneck in

order to reduce the

distance to the

drumskin.

Attaching the microphone to the drum clamp

Drums / Percussions ( 908 D)

Position Commentary

To attach the MZH 908 D drum clamp, snap

it onto the rim of the drum as follows:

Put the upper part of the clip (1) onto the

rim and clip on by pushing down in a rota-

ting action (2) until it clips into place.

Position Commentary

To attach the microphone to the drum

clamp:

Loosen the knurled screw. Insert the

gooseneck of the microphone from the side

into one of the two slots and tighten the

knurled screw.

You can attach two microphones to the

drum clamp (e.g. for picking up two toms in

cramped space conditions). To do so, use

both slots of the drum clamp.

Optimum positioning of the microphone

The various adjustment possibilities of the MZH 908 D

and MZH 908 B clamps together with the flexible goose-

neck enable the microphone to be optimally positioned

on the sound source (see arrows in the diagrams below).
