Dynamic all-round microphone with cardioid characteristic

A microphone for generations

If you've heard music, you've heard the MD 421. This legendary microphone from Sennheiser has been used in countless live performances and award-winning recordings over the last five decades. Now the MD 421 Compact continues this legacy - combining the best of the MD 421 and MD 421-II in a space-saving format that makes it a true all-rounder. Just like its predecessors, the MD 421 Kompakt impresses with a wide dynamic range and crystal-clear sound reproduction, both on stage and in the studio.

Full sound

The Sennheiser MD 421 Compact combines decades of microphone manufacturing experience with outstanding German engineering to deliver exceptional audio quality. It captures every nuance, every detail and every emotion with astonishing transparency - whether you're recording complex vocals, distorted guitar amps, drums or the fine details of other instruments. Thanks to the cardioid polar pattern and the wide transmission range, the MD 421 Compact reproduces the sound of your instrument without distortion and at the same time offers excellent feedback resistance and diffuse sound suppression. An integrated bass tube ensures precise, extended low-frequency reproduction, resulting in a rich, balanced sound with high transparency - in the studio and live.

The Sennheiser MD 421 Compact handles even the highest sound pressures in demanding situations.

Not only the housing of the MD 421 Compact is new, the stand mount has also been completely redesigned. This is firmly attached to the microphone and enables secure attachment to any stand. It can also be combined with the optional MZH drum clamp to attach the microphone securely to the drum kit.
