Details for the
e906
General Description
The e-906 is an industry standard for close micing tube guitar amps. It adds a high pass filter at 80 HZ to the legendary e609 basic specs.
As with the e-609 It does not require a mic stand as it hangs down from the top of the amp on its cable. It lays flat against the amp's grill cloth.
The e-906 role is in the Dual Amp Muse studio configuration on the Blackstar tube amp.
Comments
he e 906 features a switchable presence filter which allows you to tailor the sound characteristics to different sound requirements and styles. The filter is adjusted via a slide switch on the microphone. The slide switch is tamper-resistant - to change positions, just use a pointed tool such as a small screwdriver. The switch has three positions: one boosts the presence range (with a mid frequency of 4.2kHz) for aggressive metal rhythm guitars. The Normal position is great for classic rock. And the third position attenuates the presence range, with a mid frequency of 4kHz, for warm and smooth jazz and blues sounds.
