The PZM (Pressure Zone Microphone) is ideal for recording critical music or voices. A smaller plate makes the PZM-6D more inconspicuous than its PZM-30D counterpart, while performance is the same. Ideal for mounting on clear panels overhead or on a piano lid. The microphone offers switchable dual-frequency "rising" or "flat" response. Miniaturized electronics found in the PZM-6D's XLR-type connector housing are attached to the mic via a 12-foot mini cable.

Features:

• Pressure Zone Microphone design prevents coloration from surface sound reflections
• Choice of flat response or rising high frequency response
• Smaller, lighter than the PZM-30D, and has a permanently attached cable
• Hemispherical pickup pattern
