Shure SM81

The Shure SM81 is a high quality flat-response cardioid condenser microphone, favoured for its wide frequency response and unidirectionality.

Stewart Copeland uses a Shure SM81 condenser microphone, which is among his microphone collection at The Sacred Grove (sometimes known as "The Worried Rabbit"). It's sometimes seen on the crotales in videos, and also on the hi-hat & ride cymbal in one photo.
