Switchable 10 dB pre-attenuation

Suitable as main and support microphone in various recording situations

Colour: Nickel

It is equipped with a large double diaphragm capsule with omnidirectional, cardioid and figure-of-eight polar patterns, which are selected via a switch on the capsule head. A switch at the rear provides a 10 dB pre-attenuation. This allows the microphone to transmit sound pressure levels of up to 127 dB without distortion. Furthermore, the frequency response can be reduced in the low frequencies, e.g. to compensate for the proximity effect. It is equally suitable for a large number of applications in radio, television, film and sound recording technology. In orchestral recordings it is used as the main microphone and as a support microphone for individual instruments, but mainly as a vocal microphone in all music genres.
