3. Dynamic Supercardioid Vocal Microphone Ey Key Features Sonic voicing for transparency and high mid lift Plug and play placement of vocals in any mix Supercardioid polar pattern Powerful Neodymium magnet structure Shock mounted capsule and low handling noise Fine mesh Memraflex grille General Description Thank you for purchasing the Electro Voice PL44 This product is a professional grade supercardioid dynamic microphone designed for plug and play placement of vocals in any mix The PL44 s high mid frequency content design lifts the vocal into the precise spot in the mix where they need to be resulting in fast and effective vocal placement With its extremely accurate frequency response the PL44 s sonic performance is robust and articulate delivering highly detailed imaging across the critical vocal frequency range The enhanced isolation provided by its supercardioid polar pattern is an excellent defense against system feedback and cross talk bleed emanating from other nearby sound sources The result is higher gain before feedback and cleaner stage mixes Although designed to be a vocal microphone for music and spoken word the PL44 will also function well as an instrument or amplifier microphone where a dynamic element capsule would be desired Application Notes As with most directional microphones the low frequency response of the PL44 microphone varies with the distance from the sound source K
4. nown as proximity effect the bass response of the microphone increases as the working distance to the microphone is reduced This bass boost is only audible when working at distances closer than 6 inches Using this microphone at distances greater than 6 inches provides minimal coloration from proximity effect Proximity effect can be used to your advantage when a thin voice is being recorded As the vocalist decreases their working distance to the microphone the low frequency content is enhanced Close up positioning of the microphone will also reduce the potential for feedback from the sound reinforcement system When close talked the bass boost provides an increase in overall microphone output level The mixer gain may be proportionately reduced resulting in a reduction of the system s sensitivity to feedback caused by the sound entering the microphone from the loudspeakers Warranty This Electro Voice PL44 product is guaranteed against malfunction due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of three 3 years from the date of original purchase Please refer to the Limited Warranty card included with your product for further warranty infor mation Technical Specifications Element Type Dynamic Neodymium Magnet Structure Frequency Response 80 Hz 18 000 Hz Polar Pattern Supercardioid Sensitivity Open Circuit 2 2 mV Pa 53 dBV Voltage 1 kHz Polarity Positive pressure on
