Description

Here’s what Heil Sound says:

The Heil PR 31 BW is a dynamic microphone that is a true workhorse across multiple applications. A cousin to the Heil PR 30, the PR 31 BW was co-developed with legendary Nashville front-of-house engineer, Bob Workman. The frequency response of the PR 31 BW is characterized by a prominent mid-range focus, perfect for use on guitar cabinets, Leslie speaker cabinets, drums, and overheads. Featuring a shorter body, the PR 31 BW is excellent in small footprint applications such as tight drum spaces and under cymbals. Like all Heil microphones, the PR 31 BW delivers excellent rear noise rejection, providing superior sound isolation and eliminating bleed.

Dynamic Microphones

Dynamic microphones use a moving-coil or related robust capsule design and are often chosen for live sound, broadcast, drums, guitar cabinets, vocals and loud sources. They generally tolerate handling and high sound-pressure levels well, while many need more preamp gain than a sensitive condenser. Compare polar pattern, proximity effect, off-axis behaviour, grille and mounting, plus the available gain and noise performance of the interface or mixer. A dynamic microphone can be a focused close-range tool, but the model’s response and placement determine whether it suits speech, stage or instrument work.
