Your mic to cut through the densest of live mixes.

The MTP 840 DM is a supercardioid handheld performance microphone. Its tailored frequency response ensures that your vocals will cut through every mix. The unique Active Mode boosts sensitivity by up to 12 dB while output impedance stays low.

Refined electronics and superior capsule design make the MTP 840 DM a unique tool for onstage use.

Active mode to boost sensitivity

Give your signal some extra gain.

Boost your signal by up to 12 dB via a phantom-powered amplifier in Active Mode for ear-catching realism and distortion-free sonic depth.

Tailored vocal sound

Plug in and rock. No EQ required.

We tailored the frequency response to make your vocals cut through even the densest mix, with great presence and clarity.

Plus, you do not require an EQ to be heard. Just plug it in and perform.

Low-cut settings

Improve clarity.

Remove the mesh, and you'll find switches to activate a low-cut at 150 Hz or 250 Hz to reduce structure-borne noise. You can tame the proximity effect and adapt the mic to your individual preference.
