Common name: Countryman Associates I2

Production Status: In production

The I2 is a miniature condenser instrument microphone. It is ideal for camera work as it is almost invisible thanks to its tiny size. It is available with several instrument mounts to suit different applications. It is available with mounts for Bass and Cello, Violin, Flute, Guitar, Saxophone and Brass, Violin and Viola. The mounts use viscoelastic damping to minimise and absorb vibrations. The I2 is available with omnidirectional, cardioid, hyper-cardioid or bidirectional polar patterns and a choice of standard or high gain sensitivity. Includes windscreen, basic clip and carrying case. Specifications shown are for omnidirectional pattern, standard gain version.
