Peluso P-84 Solid State Small Diaphragm Condenser (SCD Mic Box Kit)

The Peluso P-84 is an authentic, un-hyped reproduction of the legendary Neumann KM 84—the microphone by which all modern SDC FET “pencil” mics are judged. Designed to satisfy the demands of the modern digital recording environment, the P-84 delivers natural warmth and detail, making it an essential tool for both the studio and the stage.

This specific kit offers the P-84 Single housed in a rugged, waterproof SCD Mic Box, providing maximum protection for engineers on the move.

Key Features

• Classic Inspiration: True to its inspiration in capsule and circuit design, modeled after the world-standard KM 84.

• Transformer-Balanced Output: Features a generously sized, custom-wound output transformer to eliminate interference and distortion while providing a balanced, “expensive” sound.

• Modern Enhancements: Utilizing high-quality contemporary components, Peluso has improved low-frequency responsiveness and raised the SPL capacity (142 dB) compared to vintage originals.

• Interchangeable Capsules: The P-84 features an interchangeable capsule design. This kit includes the Cardioid capsule, with Omni-directional and Hyper-Cardioid capsules available separately.

• Hand-Built Quality: Features a hand-soldered, through-hole component circuit board for superior signal integrity.

Professional Applications

The P-84 excels at capturing high-transient sources with incredible accuracy:

• Acoustic Instruments: Exceptional on acoustic guitar, dobro, mandolin, and banjo.

• Piano: Delivers a bright, shiny piano tone with enough low-end to feel grand.

• Drums: Highly recommended for drum overheads and hi-hats.

• Strings & Woodwinds: Captures the natural character of violins, cellos, and clarinets without harshness.
