The P420 is a multi-pattern large diaphragm true condenser microphone for demanding project studio recording applications. Offering high sensitivity and 155dB maximum SPL, the P420 delivers a warm, transparent sound quality perfectly suited for ensemble recording, grand piano, woodwind and brass instruments, as well as drums and percussion. With three selectable polar patterns – cardioid, omnidirectional or figure 8 – it is an ideal tool for stereo miking techniques and ambient recording.
One-inch dual-diaphragm microphone with three selectable polar patterns for the perfect setting
Low noise electronics for high dynamic range
Switchable attenuation pad for high SPL applications up to 155 dB SPL
High-performance
