BeesNeez BK53-M50 Microphone Capsule information?

[mudevilo]

Hello everyone.
Has anyone had the opportunity to test the BeesNeez BK53-M50 capsules?
I do a bit of classical music recording, and I would like to make an M 50 clone trio.
Thank you for your feedback...

I’ve a pair in Beesneez bodies.

I’ve still only used them in the studio, one-time each, as drum OHs, drums rooms 15ft away, acoustic guitars 5ft away, and bass cab 5ft away. Still need to put them on the piano. Absolutely lovely (except for drums, I still haven’t found the right placement for them yet)!

Honestly, based on the first “does this thing work” kind of vocal test, I’d love to try them on a great vocalist!

If I were to drop these into my Poctop M49 builds, would I need to alter the circuit or PSU?

just the polarization of the capsule.
There is no "rear" capsule like on the M7, the adjustable tension must be disconnected.
For the rest of the diagram I think there is no problem, these two microphones share the same valve.
But I'm not experienced enough to say that there aren't other modifications to be made...

Awesome. And would the polar positions on the PSU just become obsolete where I could remove the switch or would I need to park it in one of the positions?

Yes.
