The P420 is an excellent studio microphone for recording vocals and instruments. It delivers a natural, warm and detailed sound. Stringed instruments and singers with thin voices in particular benefit from the warm sound of the P420 - the recordings sound fuller.


A special feature of the P420 is the ability to set different directional characteristics. This means the microphone can be used flexibly: Cardioid for vocal and instrument miking, omnidirectional for room miking and figure of eight when recording two singers at the same time.


Even very loud instruments such as wind instruments, drums and percussion can be recorded with the P420. The microphone has a switchable level reduction and can also handle very loud sound sources up to 155 dB. A switchable bass-cut filter effectively suppresses mechanical vibrations such as impact sound.


Thanks to the metal housing, the P-420 is particularly robust and can also be used live as a stage microphone.
