A great microphone for vocals! The PVM 22 is a dynamic cardioid microphone that incorporates a neodymium magnet, which has greatly increased sensitivity over conventional microphones. With the mic's diamond coated diaphragm, transient and frequency response becomes flawless. Other features include 50Hz - 16kHz frequency response, and a black rubberized paint finish. Includes stand adapter and mic carry pouch.
The mic's cardioid polar response is one of the most popular patterns in the industry, giving you the freedom of moving within the frontal lobe while maintaining a relatively constant sound. The rear rejection of the PVM 22 is typically 20dB less sensitive than the on-axis response. This helps to reduce feedback from stage monitors and background noise. The cardioid pattern also makes miking easier when trying to get a good sound on non-electric instruments.
The Amorphous Diamond-coated Diaphragm is a patented technology that coats the diaphragm with a super-thin layer of diamond, which offers many advantages over conventional laminating or other materials. Mainly, it improves the stiffness of the large diaphragm. In return, it keeps the diaphragm super-stiff but ultra-light, which is needed for extended high-frequency response and sharp, crisp highs.
