Microphones

Microphones are essential tools for capturing sound in recording, broadcast, and live performance. Different microphone types are designed for different sources, environments, and uses, from studio vocals and instruments to live sound and field recording. Choosing the right microphone depends on factors such as sound source, room acoustics, sensitivity, and the character you want to capture.

Condenser

Condenser microphones are highly sensitive microphones designed to capture detail, clarity, and nuance. They are widely used in studio recording for vocals, acoustic instruments, piano, and ambient sound. Condenser microphones typically require phantom power and are available in large and small diaphragm designs, making them versatile tools for accurate sound capture.

Supercardioid

Supercardioid microphones use a tight directional pickup pattern that focuses strongly on sound from the front while rejecting much of the sound from the sides. They offer greater isolation than standard cardioid microphones, making them well suited to noisy environments.

Commonly used in live sound, broadcast and studio applications, supercardioid mics help reduce bleed from other instruments or speakers. Like hypercardioid microphones, they have a small rear pickup area, so careful placement is important to achieve the best clarity and control.
