State-of-the-art components have been carefully selected to provide optimal neutrality, accuracy and extremely low distortion. It is equally suitable for close-up work on acoustic guitar, grand piano, overheads, percussion, wind instruments and vocals as it is for spot-miking symphonies. It can handle incredibly high sound levels and even includes a 20 dB pad switch in the center of the XLR connector to attenuate the output of the microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 4011A Cardioid Mic is also available as a matched stereo pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eMMP-A Microphone Preamp\u003c\/strong\u003e is an ultra-transparent, transformerless preamp with active drive for impedance balancing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMake it sound like the original\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe principal appeal of the 4011 Cardioid Mic is its directional quality and attention to detail. This mic makes everything sound like the original. The first-order cardioid pickup pattern provides superb separation between sound sources. It is equally suitable for close-up work on acoustic guitar, grand piano, overheads, percussion, wind instruments and vocals as it is for spot-miking symphonies. It can handle incredibly high sound pressure levels (SPLs).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn film and TV studios, they are excellent for off-camera voice recording or Foley work. For live on-camera recordings, their matte black finish gives them a classic yet inconspicuous appearance, while for sound reinforcement in concert halls, theatres and houses of worship, they provide clean, natural sound while reducing the noticeable effect of lighting reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-compact spot or hanging mic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose-miking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for high sound pressure levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurate sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColorless sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModular flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA flat on-axis frequency response and excellent phase response deliver a faithful reproduction of the original sound.
