Our take on the REMIC V5200LB Live Mic for Violin/Viola

The REMIC V5200LB is a solid-state condenser microphone built to clip onto a violin or viola for live sound. Its wide 10 Hz to 22 kHz range captures the full body of the instrument, and the low-profile mount keeps the mic off the floor and out of the player's way. It suits string players who want a consistent, feedback-resistant pickup for stage work rather than a studio condenser on a stand. Against clip-on pickups and bridge-mounted transducers, it aims for a more natural, full-range tone, and owners generally treat it as a serious live tool rather than a budget option.

Questions and answers

Does the REMIC V5200LB work on both violin and viola?
Yes. REMIC lists it for violin and viola, and the clip mount is designed to fit both body sizes.
Does it need phantom power?
Yes. It is a solid-state condenser, so it needs phantom power from a mixer, preamp or audio interface.
How is it different from a piezo pickup?
It is a microphone, not a contact pickup, so it captures air and body sound across a 10 Hz to 22 kHz range instead of sensing bridge vibration.
Can it be used in the studio as well as live?
It can, but it is voiced and mounted for live use. In the studio a stand-mounted condenser usually gives more placement freedom.
What comes in the box?
Expect the microphone with its instrument mount and cable. Check the listing for the exact included accessories before buying.
