Ideal for interviews, sportscasting and as the “mono” mic when
used in conjunction with a stereo microphone
Omnidirectional polar pattern provides natural reproduction of
surrounding ambience
Rugged housing with hardened-steel grille stands up to field use
Internal shock mounting minimizes handling and cable noise
Output from the microphone’s XLRM-type connector is low
impedance (Lo-Z) balanced. The signal appears across Pins 2
and 3; Pin 1 is ground (shield). Output phase is “Pin 2 hot”
positive acoustic pressure produces positive voltage at Pin 2.
To avoid phase cancellation and poor sound, all mic cables must be
wired consistently: Pin 1-to-Pin 1, etc. For a high-impedance (Hi-Z)
mic input, connect a Lo-Z balanced cable to a Hi-Z matching
transformer (A-T CP8201 or equal) at the equipment input.
