The
Barcus-Berry Planar Wave System has not only solved the most common
problems with capturing the sound of an acoustic harp or piano for live
performance and recording, it has also introduced a whole new era in
transducers. The technology used in the system's unique sensor is
essentially non-responsive to the normal major surface plane vibrations
of the soundboard. Instead, it is highly sensitive to transverse energy
waves traveling in the plane defined by the soundboard. The result is
the reproduction of the instrument's full frequency range with perfect
amplitude balance, superior feedback rejection, and complete isolation
from ambient sounds, including pedal noise.
A single Planar Wave System does the job that would otherwise take
several microphones and a multi-channel mixer to achieve. Best yet, it
attaches easily to either side of the soundboard without tools or holes
to drill. Features include active direct box which includes a 9-volt
battery or phantom power, 1/4" monitor output with variable level,
balanced XLR main out with ground lift and output pad switch
(0dB-12dB). Includes piezo crystal sensor for harp or piano.
