Questions & Answers

FAQ

What is the purpose of the two-position switch on the Heil PR77D Deco Series Dynamic Cardioid Microphone?

The two-position switch allows users to optimize the microphone's response for different applications. The 'Voice' setting rolls off frequencies below 120 Hz, making it ideal for spoken word clarity. The 'Music' setting bypasses this filter, allowing the microphone to capture the full audio spectrum from 60 Hz to 16 kHz, perfect for musical performances.

What does the off-axis rear rejection feature do on the PR77D microphone?

The off-axis rear rejection feature significantly reduces unwanted background noise by providing exceptional 180-degree, off-axis rear rejection of over -40 dB. This ensures that the focus remains on the main sound source, providing clear and high-quality audio.

Can the Heil PR77D microphone be used with any microphone stand?

The Heil PR77D microphone is designed with standard 5/8" - 27 microphone stand threads, making it compatible with a wide array of mounting options. It's meant to be used with booms or bases.

What type of applications is the PR77D microphone best suited for?

The Heil PR77D microphone is versatile and can be used for commercial broadcasting, podcasting, and both studio and home recording. Its high-quality build and features make it suitable for any application that requires a smooth, flat response over a wide frequency range, excellent transient response, and clear speech articulation.

About Heil Sound PR77D

Over the years, Heil Sound has established a reputation for crafting high-quality, professional audio equipment, and the PR77D Deco Series Dynamic Cardioid Microphone is no exception. This dynamic microphone is engineered for superior performance in commercial broadcasting, podcasting, and both studio and home recording environments. Its versatility makes it an ideal choice for any application demanding a smooth, flat response across a broad frequency range, coupled with excellent transient response, clear speech articulation, and minimal intermodulation distortion (IMD).

The PR77D stands out with its large, 1-inch, low-mass voice coil, which is surrounded by a robust magnet structure composed of neodymium, iron, and boron. This combination ensures a powerful output and detailed audio reproduction. The microphone's precision-engineered phasing plug assembly contributes to its remarkable 180-degree off-axis rear rejection capability, which exceeds -40 dB. This feature significantly reduces unwanted background noise, ensuring that the focus remains on the main sound source.

A unique aspect of the PR77D is its two-position switch, which tailors the microphone's response to suit different applications. In the 'Voice' setting, the microphone implements a high-pass filter that rolls off frequencies below 120 Hz at -6 dB per octave, optimizing it for spoken word clarity. The 'Music' setting bypasses this filter, allowing the microphone to capture the full audio spectrum from 60 Hz to 16 kHz, perfect for a wide range of musical performances.

Designed with a sleek black body, the PR77D is built to integrate seamlessly with professional setups, requiring the use of booms or bases. It comes equipped with standard 5/8" - 27 microphone stand threads, making it compatible with a wide array of mounting options. Whether you're a broadcaster, podcaster, musician, or audio engineer, the Heil PR77D Deco Series Dynamic Cardioid Microphone with PR40 Element is a reliable and durable choice that promises to deliver high-quality audio in any professional setting.
