The d:facto Linear Supercardioid Vocal Handheld Microphone, presented in a sleek matte black finish, is a meticulously engineered audio tool designed for sound professionals who value the ability to imprint their unique sonic signature on the final output. This microphone, akin to the high-end boost d:facto Vocal Microphone, excels in capturing electrifying performances and faithfully reproducing a singer's voice with transparency, consistency, and thrilling realism. The key distinction lies in the absence of the high-end boost, making it an ideal choice for sound reinforcement and recording applications.
This microphone delivers extraordinarily natural sound, perfect supercardioid directionality, and high separation. It is capable of handling extreme Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) up to 160 dB, ensuring low handling noise even in the most demanding environments. The d:facto series' modular design allows for the interchangeability of both the capsule and the adapter, offering unmatched flexibility.
The d:facto Supercardioid Capsule is designed with an isolation-optimized supercardioid polar pattern, specifically tailored to enhance the human vocal range. It combines the best directional characteristics of both cardioid and supercardioid patterns. The supercardioid front lobe focuses on the sound source, while the smaller back lobe minimizes bleed, ensuring high separation and true sound clarity on stage. This makes it an ideal choice for both PA amplification and recording.
The microphone's linear frequency response and phase, both on- and off-axis, contribute to its superior performance. The capsule can be easily removed and replaced with any other d:facto capsule to meet changing needs. The microphone also features a robust three-stage pop protection grid built into the microphone to eliminate unwanted noise.
While the d:facto Vocal Microphone is perfectly compatible with your favorite wireless systems, it can also be converted into a wired solution by replacing the adapter with the d:facto Handle. The flexible adapter system offers simple and affordable possibilities, freeing you from being tied to one wireless system. As your circumstances change, you can switch your adapter without compromising on sound quality or incurring the cost of a new microphone.
