No battery, no preamp pedal, no hidden electronics — just a clean direct signal from the soundboard to your output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#faf4eb;border-left:4px solid #d4a574;padding:18px 22px;margin:1.4em 0;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color:#854f0b\"\u003eQuick Recommendation —\u003c\/strong\u003e Buy the MSK-4 if you're a recording or performing professional whose kanun has to compete on stage with amplified instruments.

Plug it in like an electric guitar with passive pickups; for hotter signal, run through any standard preamp pedal or DI box.
