The M1 is a handheld cardioid dynamic microphone for live-stage work — vocals, speech, guitars and drums in concert venues and houses of worship. A neodymium capsule delivers high output without excessive preamp gain across a 75 Hz to 18 kHz frequency response, and the cardioid pattern's off-axis rejection gives strong immunity to feedback. The balanced, low-impedance, gold-plated XLR output and all-metal build keep it tour-ready, and a mic clip and padded zip pouch are included.
