Neumann MCM 114 Miniature Clip Microphone System for Drums

The Miniature Clip Mic MCM System raises the bar of electret capsules. And as a true Neumann, picks the typical sound from all acoustic instruments in live applications. It redefines the standard in natural sound, practicality, reliable mounting, and longevity. The system includes nine instrument-specific mounting clips for a wide variety of acoustic instruments. The modular construction allows for easy replacements and guarantees a superior low cost of ownership.

A fundamental part of the MCM System is an exhaustive palette of mounting options that allow for simple and reliable microphone positioning on any instrument. Their mechanics are gentle to even the most sensitive surfaces and make mounting a matter of seconds, requiring only one hand for most instruments. The gooseneck holder rotates along one or two axes and locks in 45° increments to allow for precise adjustment.

The newly developed capsules KK 13 (omni) and KK 14 (cardioid) overcome former limitations of the electret principles and catch the signature sound of a wide range of acoustic sources. To achieve this, Neumann developed a layer-based design. Each of the capsules’ eight key components are designed for optimal performance, manufactured independently, and assembled by hand later on.
