Mandolin Italian String Instruments

I use this mic to record string and wind (brass mostly) instruments.  The different patterns make it effective in a variety of spaces depending on whether you want to reject other sounds or include reflections.  Versatile and great sound quality.

This mic sounds very nice for vocals, plucked string instruments, and woodwind instruments (at least that's what I've tried it on). I highly recommend it!

A quick way to not string cables across the stage.

I have several Manfrotto like this Impact. I'm sure that the Italian company is not far from Impact! I have a plus with the Impact stand, it's air coushioned.

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

I am using this for recording violin, acoustic guitar, mandolin, and piano, and all sound great. I already own the mk4 and love it, but wanted something a little more directional that can reject some of the room noise, since I am not recording in a totally isolated environment. The mk41 sounds just as good as the mk4 and definitely cuts down on any background noise. Only downside is that I have less leeway to move around when recording, whereas with the mk4, which has a wider capture, it's a little more forgiving. But I got the mk41 specifically for this purpose to just focus on what's directly in front of it, and it's doing the job even better than expected without any loss of quality or musicality in the tone. Love it! And plus one for B+H's amazing customer service. They were extremely helpful.

Couldn't wait to get this pedal so I would have more personal control of the volume when playing my mandolin on stage. It works as advertised and I am very pleased with the purchase. I just have to get into the habit of using it!! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone needing a volume control pedal.

The C411pp produces a reasonably accurate reproduction of the sound of my O-hole mandolin and classical guitar. The signal is strong (I set the guitar below unity), giving me plenty of headroom on my mixer. The pickup goes on easily and comes off easily. I wish the putty was a little less sticky; you have to be careful to get if all off the surface of the instrument.

This tuner has done a great job of getting my mandolin, mandola and guitar into tune. If you also use harmonics, you can see if your instrument's bridge is placed correctly. It will help you make sure that you are playing in tune as you use the whole fretboard.
