The Electro Voice RE20 Dynamic Microphone is a legendary broadcast announcer microphone featuring minimal proximity effect. With a wide frequency response coupled with excellent transient response, the RE20 is truly an industry standard, a firm favorite among broadcasters and sound engineers worldwide. The Electro Voice RE20 Dynamic Microphone's popularity also extends into music production as a premium grade instrument microphone. Its Variable-D™ design and heavy-duty internal pop filter excel for close-in voice work, while an internal element shock-mount reduces vibration-induced noise. The Electro Voice RE20 Dynamic Microphone can be found in almost every major TV and radio broadcast studio. But the Electro Voice RE20 also is a staple for instrument and vocal recording in professional recording studios the world over. The wide frequency response, coupled with excellent transient response, make the RE20 easily comparable to the finest condenser cardioid microphones and an easily operated "bass tilt down" switch corrects spectrum balance for use in long-reach situations or other applications where bass attenuation is needed.
A true cardioid microphone, the Electro Voice RE20 offers greatest rejection at 180º off axis - directly to the rear of the microphone. Pattern control is so consistent that the frequency response is nearly independent of angular location of the sound source, creating virtually no off-axis coloration, yet providing greatest possible rejection of unwanted sounds. An integral blast and wind filter covers each acoustic opening on the Electro Voice RE20. In recording sessions or on stage, singers can "close talk" the microphone, singing with their lips almost touching the grille screen with no worry of "P-pops" or excessive sibilance. Part of the filter also shock mounts the internal microphone element, reducing the transfer of vibrations from external sources.
The exceptional performance of the Electro Voice RE20 is achieved by using a large Acoustalloy diaphragm in combination with an exceptionally low-mass aluminum voice coil. Using this diaphragm assembly, the Electro Voice RE20 is capable of reproducing extremely high sound pressure levels with no fear of the overload and distortion often experienced with phantom-powered condensers. The Electro Voice RE20 will also continue to function flawlessly in high humidity and elevated temperatures that would seriously degrade competitive condenser microphones. A massive steel housing and effective hum-bucking coil assure the Electro Voice RE20's resistance to magnetically induced hum and noise. This means the Electro Voice RE20 can be used successfully in situations where other microphones would experience unacceptable levels of hum and buzz.
By exploiting the strength of its steel housing and employing a mechanical nesting concept, EV designers have created an exceptionally rugged microphone with superior handling noise rejection ideally suited for professional uses.
