K1X II | Pickup for clarinet and saxophone

Pickup K1X II
Clarinet and saxophone player know that a consistent pickup on stage is very difficult to implement with a conventional microphone.

Thanks to the consistent further development of the K1X pickup system, we have succeeded in creating the K1X II to set new standards in pickups for woodwind instruments.

The pickup K1X II not only provides a even more natural sound, but also transmits the tones absolutely evenly in all pitches.

Another big advantage: The pickup works completely without feedback and thus allows a balanced, rich monitor sound in any situation. Of course, the pickup system K1X II can also be optionally operated via a wireless system without any problems. These features, combined with optimal freedom of movement, create the best conditions for an unrestricted performance on stage.
Of course in best quality, 100% Made in Germany – like all our products!

What is new?

On the mechanical side, the diaphragm suspension of the K1X II has been significantly optimised once again, allowing the piezo diaphragm to vibrate more freely and deliver more level. In addition, the new mechanical design makes the pickup even more robust and thus even more suitable for rough everyday stage use. On the electronic side, we were also able to further perfect the filter circuit.

The result: the interaction of the improved electronics and mechanics makes the sound of your clarinet or saxophone even clearer, more natural and more authentic.
