Heil Sound PR 30 Dynamic Supercardioid Microphone Kit with Shockmount and Boom Arm (Matte Black)

The matte black PR 30B Dynamic Supercardioid Studio Microphone from Heil Sound is a high-performance dynamic microphone for use in broadcast studios. The large dynamic element produces a smooth response with an articulate and natural midrange, offering a sound very similar to a ribbon microphone. The size of the diaphragm, combined with a low mass and an efficient NdFeB magnet structure, allow the microphone to achieve a wide dynamic range and capture high SPLs, making it a great guitar amp microphone.

The microphone's supercardioid pickup pattern rejects off-axis noise, focusing on the sounds in front of it. The steel body and internal hum bucking coil shield the microphone, making it safe for use near video monitors and noisy lighting fixtures. An internal Sorbothane shock mount decouples the microphone's dynamic element from the body to reduce the effects of handling noise.

The PR 30B microphone has a hum bucking coil, in addition to the large shock-mounted diaphragm. Electronic noises will not affect your mix when using the PR 30B near PC monitors in the studio, nor near neon lights and vibration is not an issue with the PR 30B. The PR 30B can handle 146 dB of SPL.

This microphone is part of the Fotohaus Klinger Virtual Mic Locker, an online tool to help our valued customers determine the sonic differences between popular microphones for podcasting and voice over work. Each microphone was recorded using a Grace Design M103 preamp into a Presonus Quantum 2626 interface.

The large size and low mass of the microphone element, combined with a powerful NdFeB magnet structure, give the microphone a cardioid pattern with exceptional off-axis rejection, and the ability to capture high SPLs while providing a wide dynamic range

The Heil Sound PL2T Boom Mount is a professional articulating, broadcast studio microphone mount that features perfectly balanced springs for quiet, reliable microphone positioning. The two sections feature a hollow channel with removable panels for threading the microphone cable along the spine of the boom. The PL2T easily handles microphones weighing up to 3.5 lb (1.6 kg), includes a C clamp mount that will easily mount surfaces up to 1.5" thick, and features a 5/8"-27 thread stud for microphone shock mounts.

The black PRSM Shockmount from Heil Sound is a flexible support system for the PR 30 and PR 40 microphones. The PRSM helps suppress low-frequency rumble by absorbing and damping vibrations.
