Its 40 Hz–20 kHz response, 17 mV/Pa hypercardioid sensitivity, and up-to-20 dB ambient-noise rejection suit close, focused capture. It handles sound-pressure levels up to 130 dB and is specifically presented as a leading choice for hi-hat miking in both studio and live settings. A 21 mm gold-vapor capsule, compact electronics, interchangeable capsules, brass body, and gold-plated XLR connector complete the design.
