Contact Microphones

Contact microphones Ischell C1, C2 and C3 are new types of pickups that attach to the instrument with a specific putty audio adhesive. The sound is comparable to an aerial microphone, fidelity, warmth, width, air… With the acoustic insulation and the feedback resistance of a piezo pickup, allowing to play in conditions of high levels on stage. You can easily use it in an amp, apply effects or make clean loops. A revolution in the amplification of many instruments on stage! An innovation Ischell

Miniature Aerial Microphonesaircapt

The aerial microphones Ischell A1 and A3 are miniature condenser microphones with a design studied to be placed closer to the sound on the instrument. It optimizes sound pickup with more gain, less feedback and less ambient noise. Particularly suitable for acoustic situations or as a complement to our contact microphone, they faithfully and very naturally reproduce the sound of your instrument with precision, dynamics and allow comfortable levels on stage without a microphone stand.

    Tested and approved! On stage as in rehearsal, coupled with the Cole Clark PG3 system, this little microphone adds a touch of naturalness to my guitar and allows me to play with level on stage without going into feedback, finally a real acoustic sound live, after 30 years of testing, Hallelujah 🤩

    This microphone pickup gives a real acoustic upright bass sound via the speakers, both pizz and bowing.The feedback is minimal. With a small EBS acoustic preamp I can mix my Realistic piezo when the drummer is a bit loud. Other than that I first use the Ischel sound. I'm very happy with it.

    "As a user of the system Ischell For years, I have found that the restitution of acoustic sound in pizz but also with the bow is very faithful on stage. In addition, the microphone has very good resistance to feedback. The new version (C3) further improves the sound and the output level.

    I am a double bass player. I already had the old micro-contact from Ischell, which I was quite happy with but which required phantom power on my amp. Not always practical when playing on someone else's amp...
    The sound with this latest contact microphone is even closer to the acoustic sound (both with the bow and in pizzicato) and it is much easier to install on the instrument, it has a groove in which the putty is housed, from Suddenly we can test much more easily the appropriate place to position it. This is the number 1 choice recommended in the assembly instructions which is most suitable. The bass frequency cut-off is also very practical (I use it to avoid the risk of feedback).
    To add a little presence (this is a matter of taste) I mix it with a Full Circle microphone, 2/3 for the Ischell and 1/3 for Full circle.
    This is my favorite microphone out of all the ones I've tested.
