Knowing your microphone

Superlux provides a wide variety of microphones for both professionals

and amateurs. Knowing the audio characteristics of your microphone is

the first step to a successful result in audio reproduction. The

following text gives some information on the characteristics of the

E302 microphone and its care:

About Frequency Response

Flat

A measurement microphone needs a response that is as flat as possible in

order not to give any coloration to the sound source. The E302 is

designed specifically to give this desired flat response.

Directivity/ Omni-directional Polar Pattern

A measurement microphone should have an omni-directional polar

pattern to capture the sound from all directions, just like the

human ear. The E302 has equal sensitivity in all directions,

making it unnecessary to point the microphone directly toward the

sound source when in use.

Transducer Type

Condenser

A condenser microphone features an extremely lightweight diaphragm

which is very sensitive to sound. High performance condenser

microphones are regarded as standard equipment in recording studios

for their ability to capture the finest acoustic detail and very small

versions are available for applications where visual minimalization is

desirable. A condenser microphone requires a power source such as

phantom power or a battery for its operation. The E302 can be

powered directly from the microphone input of a laptop or PC,

giving it great flexibility in use.

Microphone Placement

Place the E302 measurement microphone at the “best seat”¨

measurement data. If the audience area is large, you may prefer to get

the average from several of the best locations.

Maintenance

Condenser microphones should be kept in a low humidity

environment for the best sound performance. Store condenser

microphones in an air conditioned room or one equipped with a

dehumidifier to keep them away from moisture. Clean air is another

important factor. Keep the microphone away from a smoking

environment to avoid tar residuals which could potentially affect the

sensitivity of the microphone.

Extraneous Noises

The E302 features low handling and wind noise, making it ideal for

news gathering, music recording and measurement applications.
