Supercardioid dynamic instrument mic
Power None: a dynamic mic needs no power. Low output: it needs a lot of preamp gain.
- Type
- Dynamic
- Pattern
- Supercardioid
- Sensitivity
- −54 dBV/Pa
- Among 78 dynamics: more output than 47%
- Among 311 mics: more output than 16%
- Rated range
- 30 – 19k Hz
vs 44 end-address dynamics
More output than 56% of 44 end-address dynamics.
Each stripe is one end-address dynamic with a published sensitivity, and each bar counts them; further right means more output. This mic is in blue.
Proximity effect: the bass it gains up close
From the manual, p. 4.
At 5 cm (2 in.), as printed on the graph. Anechoic or not, smoothing and typical-vs-individual are not stated.
Dashed: outside the rated range, or simulated (other angles and distances). Hover or tap the graphs for values.
Polar pattern
From the manual, p. 4.
Two halves: 125 Hz to 1 kHz on the left, 2 to 16 kHz on the right; 0° at the top, 5 dB per ring. Measuring conditions not stated.
