Opus 99
Common name: Beyerdynamic Opus 99
Production Status: Discontinued / Vintage
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 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.
