Audix Pdx720 Dynamic Vocal Studio Microphone (signature Edition)
- Product Code: ga138528
-
Frequency optimized to capture vocal performances, the Audix PDX720 Dynamic Vocal Studio Microphone (Signature Edition) features a dynamic mic capsule designed to deliver smooth, natural vocals with excellent low-end extension. The mic's hypercardioid polar pattern focuses audio capture narrowly in front of the capsule, helping to reduce bleed from other instruments as well as reflections from walls and hard surfaces in untreated recording environments.
A 3-position high-pass filter switch can be set to Off, 155, or 120 Hz, allowing you to easily remove unwanted low-end frequencies. Similarly, a 3-position presence boost switch can be set to Off, +1.5, or +3 dB to accentuate frequencies in the 3 to 8 kHz range. Low-noise preamp circuitry ensures a robust signal level from the PDX720, eliminating the need for an inline preamp often necessary with dynamic microphones.
For Vocals, Drums & Instruments Hypercardioid Pickup for Less Bleed Off, 120, or 155 Hz High-Pass Switch Off, +1.5, or 3 dB Presence Boost Switch Low-Noise Preamp Circuit High Output Level Handles up to 135 dB SPL 50 Hz to 20 kHz Frequency Range

Q: 4. Is there an affordable USB audio interface you'd recommend for using the SM7B to record with a MacBook Pro?

A: Voltage should not be a problem since the power adapter works on 100-240 volts. However, you need to check if the operating frequency ranges are OK for your region in Europe. That by itself would be the reason to buy in Europe so that you can make sure you are operating within the local law and allowable frequency spectrum.
