The satin nickel Microtech Gefell UM 930 Condenser Microphone with MH 80 Holderis a multi-pattern large-diaphragm condenser microphone offering ultralow noise and flexible pickup responses for precise capture of vocals and instruments such as strings, percussion, and guitars in recording facilities and radio studios.

It features a dual-capsule design that yields five selectable polar patterns—omnidirectional, cardioid, wide cardioid, supercardioid, and figure-8, making it equally well suited for use as a main mic or as a part of stereo and mid-side configurations. The transformerless circuitry incorporates a transistor amplifier and produces only 7 dBA of self-noise.

The UM 930's high sensitivity, standard 3-pin XLR output connector, and 48V phantom powering method ensure reliable performance with a variety of mic preamps. An MH 80 mic holder is supplied along with a hard case to house the microphone and the holder.

Q: 3. Hi, I was just wondering. Is it possible to connect Shure VP88 to Sony PCM-D100? And how? And is there any disadvantage in doing that? (recording quality, etc.) All the best, Emil

A: The Shure VP88 can be used with a portable recorder such as the D-100 when set to stereo mode and using the internal battery power. To connect to the 3.5mm input on the recorder would require the included Y cable and additional adapter cable. There would be no disadvantage, however the PCM-D100 is designed primarily for use with the internal mics, and a mic such as the Shure would benefit from a unit with XLR inputs and higher quality preamps.

Q: 4. Can this case fit the RSC 2 without having to undo balance adjustments?

I realise they're XY and this is an MS mic but I'm hoping to record two things acoustic singer songwriter bits and also some ambience from a forrest and wondered if the sound from using this VP88 into a mixer (mixpre-d) line out into the line in of the PCM-D100 would yield better results than just using the built in mics on the pcm-d100.

A: Although the built-in mics of the Sony PCM-D100 are very good, this Shure VP-88 offers a very large improvement. Along with better sound, this external mic offers the flexibility of distance and placement away from the recorder.
