Yellowtec YT5051 iXm Pro Mic Head PRO Cardioid

Yellowtec iXm PRO Head Cardioid

Yellowtec’s iXm PRO microphone head with cardioid recording pattern is designed as a directed head for recordings in environments with various noise levels. It is known as an allrounder which is a solid choice even for complex acoustic environments. Because of its sound pickup from the front, it filters background noise. Its optimal frequency response ensures brilliant voice recording and clarity. The cardioid pickup pattern suits best for interviews in various surroundings like events and outdoor locations with a lot of traffic noise.

When using the cardioid PRO head, there is a slight bass boost in near-field, but no common high proximity effect of directed microphones. Due to the high-pass-filter that is found inside the iXm Recorder’s LEA Engine, a perfect balance of frequency ranges is achieved.

As a dynamic microphone capsule, the head is characterized by its sound converter components’ ruggedness, especially at high sound pressure levels. Its recording pattern is less sensitive in higher frequency ranges compared to an electret microphone head. In comparison, the dynamic head’s sluggish membrane leads to different sounding recording results.
