K1X | Pickup for clarinet and saxophone
Clarinet and saxophone players know that it is very difficult to achieve an even pickup on stage with conventional microphones.
Thanks to the consistent further development of the K1 Plus pickup system, we succeeded in setting new standards in terms of pickups for woodwind instruments with the K1X.
The K1X pick-up not only delivers a very lifelike sound, but also transmits all tones absolutely evenly down to the lowest register.
Another big advantage: The system works completely without feedback and allows a balanced, rich monitor sound in every situation. Of course, the K1X pickup system can also be operated with wireless systems as an option. These characteristics, combined with optimum freedom of movement, create the best prerequisites for unrestricted performance on stage.
Of course in best quality, 100% Made in Germany – like all our products!
