Sennheiser Dynamic Microphone MD 441 U

The MD 441-U is engineered with a unique spring-mounted capsule and a humbucking coil, which provide a level of detail and noise rejection usually reserved for high-end condenser microphones. It offers the durability of a dynamic mic with the precision and frequency response of a studio-grade instrument mic.

No, the MD 441-U is a dynamic microphone and does not require phantom power. It works directly with any standard XLR microphone preamp.

These switches allow you to tailor the microphone's response to your source. The five-position bass roll-off helps manage proximity effect or low-end rumble, while the two-position high-frequency switch adds presence or brightness, making it easier to fit instruments like horns or guitars into a dense mix.

Yes, the supercardioid pattern is highly directional, which provides excellent off-axis noise rejection. This makes it an ideal choice for live environments where you need to isolate a specific instrument while minimizing bleed from other stage sounds.

While it is primarily marketed as an instrument microphone, the MD 441-U is widely considered a 'secret weapon' for vocals. Its detailed frequency response and ability to handle high sound pressure levels make it a fantastic choice for singers who want a clear, articulate sound without the sensitivity of a condenser.

The MD 441-U features a 5/8-27 female mounting thread. It is designed to be used with a dedicated clip or a standard microphone stand mount.
