The Beyerdynamic Opus 82 is a reliable clip-on style gooseneck microphone that's specifically optimized for capturing wind and brass instruments with pristine detail. The Opus 82 utilizes a condenser element resulting in high sound pressure (SPL) handling and dynamic range. A spring loaded miniature clamp-on style mount and gooseneck provides sturdy placement and accurate microphone positioning. The cardioid polar pattern minimizes off-axis noise and feedback while the frequency response is ideal for capturing trumpet, trombone, saxophone and much more.
