Music Recording Studio Update

Help me give my students two Sennheiser MD 421 II Cardioid Dynamic Microphones to upgrade our music recording studio with the same state-of-the-art sound technology that they'll encounter in the audio/music production industries.

My Project

Our Radio/Audio Production program features what we call a "state of the art" music recording studio - only it's really not. It has been several years since the equipment, including our microphones, have been updated.

Purchasing these 2 Sennheiser MD 421 II Cardioid Dynamic Microphones would be a great start to our project of updating the studio.

It was at the top of the wish list of our former instructor, who has sadly been moved to hospice care, as he battles cancer. Please help us train our students using the most state-of-the-art technology that they will encounter in the audio/music production industries, while also helping us launch an effort to overhaul & update the studio, a project which Mr. Ragotskie had planned to see through to the end.
