The R&OslashDE M3 is a highly versatile end-address condenser microphone, designed to be completely at home in the studio, on stage or on location. It is equally suitable as an instrument microphone for guitars, drums and percussion or even vocals.

Featuring a heavy duty metal body and internally shock mounted 1/2" condenser capsule mounted for end-address, the M3 can be powered either via P48 phantom power, or an internal 9V battery.

A -10dB and -20dB level attenuator (pad), selectable from inside the battery compartment, allows recording of loud sound sources, such as a guitar amplifier or snare drum. A high-pass filter selectable on the microphone power switch introduces a filter at 80Hz to reduce low frequency sounds and handling noise.

The R&OslashDE M3 microphone is designed and made in Australia, and covered by R&OslashDE Microphones' industry leading 10 year warranty

William Y. ★★★★★

The dual power option is a lifesaver for outdoor sessions—plugging in phantom power at home but switching to battery on location without missing a beat. Even on loud acoustic drums, the end-address design keeps that crisp, natural tone without any harsh peaks.

Joshua N. ★★★★★

Picked this up for recording acoustic guitar and vocals at home—the dual power option is a lifesaver when phantom power isn’t available. Captures clear, detailed sound without any weird hiss, and the build feels solid enough for regular use. Definitely a step up from my old dynamic mic.

Robert ★★★★★

Took it on location to record a quick acoustic session, and the end-address design picked up the guitar cleanly without any fuss. The dual power flexibility is a real lifesaver when you’re away from a desk setup. Feels solid enough for stage work too, which I wasn’t expecting.
