EHRLUND ACOUSTIC PICKUP
THE EHRLUND ACOUSTIC PICKUP (EAP) is an ultra-linear con-
tact microphone for instruments with an acoustic sound box, such
as the guitar, violin, double bass and ethnic instruments. It is made
entirely in Sweden and is based on the same knowledge of sound
recording as Ehrlund's other products.
A linear microphone means that the pickup reproduces a flat
frequency response. The pickup captures the vibrations of the
acoustic instrument, enabling the microphone to provide excel-
lent separation, even in what are normally "impossible" conditions,
where musicians playing together generate high noise levels on
their respective instruments. In testing, very good results were
achieved, for example, in mismatched combinations, such as heavy
metal music and the cello.
The EAP is sold separately or in a set, EAP SYSTEM, together
with the PREAMP.
