Microtech Gefell extends Generation 4 Range
Microtech Gefell, a German specialist in high-quality microphones and acoustic systems, will be attending NAMM (Booth 15020) to showcase their recently released Generation 4 modular microphone system, incorporating extensions to the range which will be shown for the first time at NAMM – including a new super cardioid diaphragm capsule, as well as a table stand and windscreen. These product line extensions sit alongside Microtech Gefell’s existing and extensive range of transistor and tube pre-amplifiers, as well as calibration and measurement tools.
Generation 4 represents the next evolution in modular microphone technology, featuring the ultra-compact MV 400 preamplifier and a range of interchangeable, externally polarised, small-diaphragm capsules; including the M 40 (cardioid), M 42 (omnidirectional), and M 43 (wide-cardioid), as well as the newly released M 41 (super cardioid). Designed for adaptability and efficiency, the modular system enables professionals to respond seamlessly to changing requirements, ensuring a more productive workflow. Now, with the addition of the TS10 table stand and W21 windscreen, users can apply their setup in an even more diverse number of contexts.
The company, which also provides calibration, testing and maintenance services, will further use their presence at NAMM to announce the opening of a new facility on the East Coast, reinforcing its presence in the US market. The move marks a strategic milestone in the company’s mission to deliver precision-engineered audio solutions to an ever-growing base of professionals across North America.
What is most notable about the Generation 4 Modular system is its remarkably small size. With the MV400L measuring just 46.5 x 21mm and the MV400X just 57 x 21mm, these transformerless, phantom-powered, solid-state impedance converter microphones constitute some of the smallest devices on the market, whilst still maintaining an impressive array of innovation and technology within – including Microtech Gefell’s unique rolled nickel diaphragm.
This latest innovation underscores Microtech Gefell’s commitment to combining cutting-edge technology with its heritage of exceptional craftsmanship. With the Generation 4 Modular Microphone System, the company takes a significant leap forward, offering unmatched performance in an ultra-compact design for recording studios, live sound, and fixed installations.
Speaking of their upcoming attendance, President Matthias Domke said: “We are excited to showcase our Generation 4 system at NAMM, which has been enthusiastically received by everybody who has had the opportunity to see it already. Visitors to the NAMM booth will be able to discover first-hand the remarkable potential of this modular system, as well as exploring the diverse industry use cases which have taken full advantage of its flexibility, adaptability and small size”.
Commenting further, Udo Wagner, Sales and Marketing Director, stated: “Microtech Gefell has built its reputation through the provision of a full product range which meets the needs of audio professionals from a diverse range of fields – including both studio and testing. We provide not only transistor and tube pre-amplifiers and diaphragms, but also calibration and measurement tools, and related calibration and maintenance services. But what is most crucial to our reputation is both our innovation, and our commitment to exceptional and robust build-quality and reliability, delivering precise, crisp sound, regardless of operational context. We look forward to helping customers – existing and future – to discover more about us at NAMM”.
