Category: Dynamic Mics

Dynamic mics are rugged, handle high sound pressure levels with ease, and don’t require phantom power, which makes them a go-to for live vocals, guitar cabinets, and loud stage sources. Their typically tighter frequency response and natural proximity effect can also help a mic sit well in a busy mix.When choosing one, consider the polar pattern for gain-before-feedback on stage and how the mic’s off-axis rejection suits close-miking versus room use.
