Description
The Electro-Voice RE20 has earned its reputation as a go-to microphone across radio booths, voice-over studios, and tracking rooms for good reason: it captures sound with remarkable neutrality across a wide frequency range, no matter how close the source gets to the capsule.
- Variable-D geometry uses dual acoustic ports to tame the bass buildup (proximity effect) that plagues most cardioid mics when working up close — a key reason announcers and voice talent favor it
- Large Acoustalloy diaphragm paired with a low-mass aluminum voice coil delivers a smooth, detailed response reminiscent of a studio condenser
- Fully dynamic design means no external power is needed, and it shrugs off loud transients without distorting — handy for kick drums, guitar cabs, and other high-SPL sources
- Steel housing combined with a humbucking coil rejects electromagnetic interference, keeping hums and buzzes out of your signal chain
- Cardioid pickup pattern isolates the intended source while minimizing bleed from the sides and rear
Whether it’s anchoring a podcast setup, miking a kick drum in the studio, or standing in for on-air talent, the RE20 performs with the same consistency that’s made it a broadcast and recording staple for decades.
