"A Cell that can take it..."

Very faithful response, exemplary natural sound

Developed under the direction of Ludovic Lanen with the help of talented guitarist Clément Garcin, the GL21 is specially designed for recording and sound reinforcement of acoustic guitars, ukuleles, mandolins and dobros.

  • Equipped with a remarkably fine electret cell, it will capture all the dynamics and nuances of your playing.

Supplied with its mini-XLR/XLR devolver adapter (48V phantom power required for wired use).

Quick and easy to assemble

We preferred to design two clamps of different lengths:

The first, straight, is designed for all acoustic guitars, so that the sound can be picked up without being too close to the soundhole.

The 2nd, smaller and angled, is suitable for smaller instruments such as ukuleles and mandolins.

Note that this mounting system gives you maximum freedom in positioning the GL21 pick-up for playing comfort and proximity to suit your needs.

As well as simplifying the mechanics (anyone who's ever lost a small screw on a dark stage will understand), these two clips ensure ideal fixing, without damaging or scratching your instrument.

Clément Garcin

Guitarist

"I took an active part in testing the GL21 guitar & ukulele pick-up. If I had to sum up the results in one word, I'd say: effective! The cell reproduces the sound of the instrument remarkably well and with a lot of warmth.
The two clamps supplied with the pickup are perfectly designed and adapted to all types of guitars.
Prodipe is definitely an amazing brand. I love them."

An electret cell capable of handling 140dB

In a microphone, the part that cannot suffer from any mediocrity is the cell.

Prodipe has developed, in France, a remarkably fine electret cell capable of handling 140dB, which will capture all the dynamics and nuances of your playing.

Its great linearity will perfectly respect the timbre and sonority of your instrument.

Can also be used in a UHF version: connect to the Prodipe UHF DSP B210 Solo or UHF DSP B210 Duo systems (specially adapted to the impedance of the 21 Lanen cartridge).

Manu Bertrand

Guitarist and multi-instrumentalist

"The GL21 Lanen pickup captures the warmth of an acoustic instrument in such a way as to faithfully reproduce its soul, something that few pickups are capable of achieving. For my 1937 Martin 'prewar' guitar, model 00-21, on which an intrusive fixed cell was out of the question, I opted for a removable, easy-to-use pickup. The GL21 was the obvious choice because of its exemplary versatility and transparency. For me, the GL21 Lanen mic + UHF B210 DSP + NATURAL 6 Amplifier combination is the perfect solution for the sound reinforcement of my various instruments, offering me naturalness and coherence at a more than reasonable price."

The 'research and development' was carried out in France, in active collaboration with the indispensable French sound engineer Ludovic Lanen

"In developing the cell, we drew inspiration from the best in the field, and worked in constant comparison with DPA microphones. This microphone is offered at an affordable price... Once again, don't be fooled by the price: we're pursuing our objective of making professional quality accessible to everyone. With this new range, Prodipe continues to make its mark on professional audio."
