vs 14 handheld condensers
More output than 38% of 14 handheld condensers.
Each stripe is one handheld condenser with a published sensitivity, and each bar counts them; further right means more output. This mic is in blue.
vs 12 handheld condensers
Quieter than 0% of 12 handheld condensers.
Each stripe is one handheld condenser with a published self-noise, and each bar counts them; further right means quieter. This mic is in blue.
vs 14 handheld condensers
Takes louder sound than 23% of 14 handheld condensers.
Each stripe is one handheld condenser with a published max SPL, and each bar counts them; further right means it takes louder sound. This mic is in blue.
Proximity effect: the bass it gains up close
From the spec sheet, p. 2.
Graph marked "AVERAGE RESPONSE"; dotted line marked "1 cm". Relative dB, 0 dB labelled. Distance of the solid line, room and smoothing not stated.
Dashed: outside the rated range, or simulated (other angles and distances). Hover or tap the graphs for values.
Polar pattern
From the spec sheet, p. 2. Approximate
Titled "Polar Response", one full-circle plot marked "@1kHz"; rings labelled -5dB to -20dB, centre circle -25 dB. Measuring conditions not stated.
Approximate: reading error up to about 1 dB.
