REMIC B5201 LB Live mic. for Viola

B5201LB Live Microphone for Viola

The B5201 LB is designed for close miking in loud live performances and delivers the true sound of the instrument with an extreme accuracy and fast transient response that captures the finest and most delicate overtones of the instrument.

The microphone employs the REMIC Live Band technology to achieve the highest suppression of ambient sound-sources in a condenser microphone. The high suppression is achieved by the omni-spherical suppression superior to classic cardioid microphones. The suppression is not based on directivity but on distance factor.

It is ideal for Folk-rock, Pop, Rock and Metal performances where high gain before feedback is needed with high suppression of neighbor instruments and ambient noise.

B5201 LB features a non intrusive rubber mount with acoustic foam and allows a fixed and well defined location on the instrument, making it easy to reproduce a consistent mounting.

The sound response of the LB technology is true to the instrument due to the high ambient suppression factor in comparison to the Studio models, which inherently pick up the room reverberation. LB models can be sound shaped using modern reverberation engines. In addition it is therefore well suited for pairing with contemporary studio sound processing technology.

Since there are no clamps and clips in order to mount and hold the microphone, there will be no harm to valuable instruments. At the same time the microphone will maintain the aesthetic appearance of the instrument towards your audience and retain a full and undisturbed view of the fingerboard.

All microphones for strings have a built-in windshield, which is designed to drastically reduce wind noise in open air performances. The windshield is placed inside the microphone and is therefore invisible and non-removable. With the built-in windshield, you do not need to add any other windshields to your microphone. The built-in windshield does not change the quality of the microphone or sound quality in general.
