Frequently Asked Questions

Omni mics tend to pick up more room ambience, which can add warmth or muddiness if the room isn't treated well, but also provides a more natural, full low-end when the acoustics are favorable.
No, the MCM 114 uses a 3.5mm mini-jack connector; you'll need an adapter to connect it to most standard audio interfaces or mixing consoles.
While it can technically be used on electric pianos, the MCM 114 is primarily designed for the natural acoustic characteristics of a grand piano, and the results may not be ideal for electric pianos.
