About the Product
Dynamic super-cardioid vocal microphone with a narrower pick-up pattern. Rich in detail, the ideal choice when the vocals really have to cut through.
High-end flagship condenser microphone with the sensitivity of a studio condenser, but tough enough for the stage. Switch between gentle cardioid and more directional super-cardioid polar patterns. Stellar 40Hz–20 kHz response.
