Let the Electro-Voice RE20 Variable-D Dynamic Cardioid Microphone elevate your audio recording and broadcasting experience. This professional-grade cardioid microphone is specifically designed for applications that demand a flat response across an extensive frequency range. Its wide frequency and exceptional transient response rival the performance of top-tier condenser cardioid microphones. The RE20 features an easy-to-use "bass tilt down" switch, perfect for long-reach situations or applications where bass attenuation is required. As a true cardioid microphone, it excels in rejecting sounds at 180 degrees off-axis, directly to the rear of the microphone. Its pattern control is so consistent that the frequency response remains virtually unaffected by the angular location of the sound source, ensuring minimal off-axis coloration and maximum rejection of unwanted sounds.
This microphone comes equipped with an integral blast and wind filter that covers each acoustic opening. This feature allows singers to "close talk" the microphone during recording sessions or live performances without the worry of "P-pops" or excessive sibilance. The filter also serves as a shock mount for the internal microphone element, significantly reducing the transfer of vibrations from external sources. The RE20's superior performance is powered by a large Acoustalloy diaphragm and an ultra-lightweight aluminum voice coil. This combination allows the microphone to reproduce extremely high sound pressure levels without the risk of overload and distortion typically associated with phantom-powered condensers.
Built to withstand high humidity and elevated temperatures, the RE20 outperforms other condenser microphones that falter under these conditions. Its robust steel housing and effective hum-bucking coil ensure resistance to magnetically induced hum and noise, making the RE20 a reliable choice in environments where other microphones might struggle. In addition to the RE20 microphone, this package includes a telescoping tabletop microphone stand, an H&A microphone suspension shockmount, and a 10' premium XLR cable, providing you with a complete audio recording solution.
