OPUS 86
APPLICATIONS
The new Opus 86 has been especially developed for those situations where lightweight mini mics with ultimate freedom are required. The flexible gooseneck allows individual adjustment, whilst the cardioid capsule frequency response has been optimised for live applications. Features also include a high-gain-before feedback. To avoid handling noise the microphone capsule has been fixed with a special shock-mounted suspension, detachable for ease of transportation.
In conjunction with Opus wireless systems, the versatile Opus 86 provides perfect sound quality. Suitable for use with any type of instrument, from saxophone to accordion.

FEATURES
• Flexible gooseneck for easy positioning
• Shock-mounted mic capsule
• High gain-before feedback
• Very light in weight

OPUS 87
APPLICATIONS
The most important element of a drum kit is the snare – it is hit most often, the hardest and produces a very complex sound pattern. The Opus 87 has been optimised for the snare; both electrically and physically creating an exact sound from a unique, contemporary package with a unique double spring clamp for rock-solid mounting and isolation.
Ideal for snare, floor and rack toms.

FEATURES

OPUS 99
APPLICATIONS
The Opus 99 has been developed especially for miking bass drums. The strong neodymium magnet system and a mass reduced special diaphragm give the microphone a powerful reproduction with
excellent transient characteristics. The optimised frequency response guarantees audio quality which
has until now, only been achieved by using high-quality condenser microphones. The hypercardioid polar pattern helps eliminate feedback in live applications and allows an optimum channel separation between different instruments. The microphone can operate at very high sound pressure levels
without loss of sound quality and virtually no distortion.
With the optional ST 99 stand the Opus 99 can be placed directly inside or in front of the bass drum.
