• Highly directional supercardioid / lobar polar pattern that rejects unwanted off-axis audio while clearly capturing the intended sound source
• Superior RF immunity that avoids unwanted audio artifacts from cellular and RF devices
• Easily accessible controls at the back of the microphone:
• Three-position gain (-10 dB pad, 0, +20 dB boost) to compensate for different recording environments
• Low-cut filter to eliminate background noise and room ambience

Durable and Lightweight
