Tailored Acoustics for Versatility

It has a patented dual diaphragm inverted airflow cartridge that does an excellent job of rejecting off-axis sound and delivering a signal clarity that rivals a condenser mic but with optimal feedback control. It has a clear tonal range and does well in catching sonic details for a balanced acoustic performance.
