: Condenser Microphone Type
Lightweight, sensitive diaphragm. Precisely and smoothly captures sound nuances. Powered by battery or phantom power supply.
: Cardioid Polar Pattern
Picks up the most sound in front of the microphone and some from the sides. Less susceptible to feedback in high volume environments.
: OmniDirectional Polar Pattern
Equally sensitive to sound from all directions, but cannot be "aimed" to isolate one area.
: SuperCardioid Polar Pattern
Screens unwanted sound sources. Ideal for individual instruments in a multi-microphone setting, or single sources in noisy environments.
