Beyerdynamic - MM 1 - Condensor Measurement Microphone
Beyerdynamic - MM 1 - Condensor Measurement Microphone
The Beyerdynamic MM 1 Condensor Measurement Microphone is purpose-built for acoustic measurement and system calibration in studios, venues, and research environments. Its omnidirectional, diffuse-field calibrated response is engineered for linearity at 90°, enabling accurate frequency response measurements and reliable comparison across multiple loudspeakers. A slim housing with a protruding capsule minimizes influence on the sound field, reducing pressure build-up at high frequencies for precise readings with spectrum analyzers and measurement software.
Handcrafted in Germany, the MM 1 delivers dependable performance for room tuning, PA alignment, and industrial or R&D tasks. With low tolerance of ±1.5dB from 50Hz to 16,000Hz, individual 0° and 90° calibration data available on request, and robust XLR connectivity, it offers consistency and confidence in critical measurement workflows. Lightweight construction and an included microphone clamp make deployment fast and repeatable whether in the studio, on stage, or in the field.
