Telefunken Elektroakustik adds two new dynamics for instrumental and vocal miking. The new “Shorty” compact M80-SH provides the bright, open sound of the standard M80, while the new low profile “Shorty” M81-SH produces the darker, richer tones of the M81. These alternative lower profile versions with built in mic clips are ideal for tight applications where a lower profile microphone with right angle XLR cable is preferable. Both have a $249 MSRP and include a 5-meter XLR cable with a right-angle female connector.

Designed for portable use, the GK-SFA combines Polar Focus’ XY Grid system and the aiming of its Spine Frame Adapter to let users precisely aim their line array from a Genie (or similar) tower. The Spine Frame Adapter (lower half of assembly) provides infinitely adjustable tilt control to any line array that uses the common front-to-back “spine” support frame. The line array tilt is adjustable under full load with a 9/16-inch wrench, and can be locked down. The pan angle of the line array is controlled and adjusted by a heavy-duty friction bearing. The working load limit is 637 to 1,000 pounds depending on the arm separation spacing.
