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.

  1. "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.

  2. 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.

  3. Good sound, I use this mic on a nyckelharpa and it's good for me, since it's a very difficult instrument to play amplified… but this mic has a natural sound. After some tries with the putty, I found a sound that's good for me.

  4. I knew the previous version was already of very good quality but here with the new preamp, we have gained enormously in dynamics and timbral balance. Use live on different instruments (piano, mandola, banjo, harp, cello, etc.) It's perfect even with a high feedback level.
    Bravo and thank you.

  5. Very satisfied with this microphone. Very quick installation each time you use it in concert. I use it on a small Camac Bardic harp. The microphone is excellent whatever the size of the room, even very large. I am always surprised to hear such a powerful sound that fills a large room with this small 27 code harp with such a weak sound. Thanks to this microphone, my little harp almost looks like a big one! Its very nice. (in the settings I ask the sound system to increase the bass and reduce the treble for better sound balancing. It seems to me that certain microphones Ischell have this built-in function…)
    In addition, the customer service is excellent, attentive, responsive and professional. When ordering, I had very short deadline constraints, the service was very accommodating and did everything to ensure that the product arrived at its destination as quickly as possible, and I thank them for that. Really, I recommend!
