PZM185 Low-impedance PZM microphone, Crown Microphones
Hemispherical Boundary Layer Microphone
Budget model ideal for applications such as conferences, group
discussions, interviews, broadcast, home video production, lectures, and
recordings. XLR connector on 8-foot mini cable, battery or phantom
powered.
Microphone is a microphone designed for general-purpose use. Ideal
for applications such as conferences, group discussions, interviews,
broadcast, home video production, lectures, and recordings. The mic can
be placed on a large surface such as a table, floor, wall, or lectern.
The PZM-185 is powered either by an internal AAA 1.5V battery or 12-48V
phantom power.
The boundary "paddle" can be detached so the mic will fit in your
pocket. Attached to the mic is an 8-foot (2.438-m) cable leading to a
tubular power module.
The microphone's low-profile design reduces "mic fright" and
minimizes clutter. It is nearly invisible on camera. The PZM-185
minimizes pickup of vibration and handling noise.
Its electret condenser capsule provides a wide, smooth frequency
response from 50 Hz to 16 kHz. The mic's hemispherical polar pattern
allows clear pickup of everyone surrounding the microphone. The PZM-185
is protected against static and RFI. The output is balanced, low
impedance, which allows long cable runs without hum pickup or
high-frequency loss.
Like other Pressure Zone Microphones, the PZM-185 uses a miniature
mic capsule mounted very near a sound-reflecting plate or boundary in
the Pressure Zone. In this zone, direct sound from the sound source
combines in phase at all frequencies with reflected sound off the
boundary.
The benefits are many: 6 dB more sensitivity, 6 dB less noise, a wide
smooth frequency response free of phase interference, excellent clarity
and "reach," and consistent pickup anywhere around the microphone.
