A versatile studio workhorse with professional-grade audio.
The PDX720 dynamic microphone delivers exceptional recording quality for vocals, drums and instruments. Featuring a hypercardioid polar pattern, the PDX720 provides superior sound isolation and feedback rejection. Its sound signature produces natural, smooth vocals and percussion with a full low end and clear highs.
Hypercardioid Polar Pattern Minimizes Bleed and Feedback
The hypercardioid polar pattern focuses on sound directly in front of the mic while attenuating unwanted noise from the sides and rear. This makes the PDX720 an excellent choice when multiple sound sources are present or ambient noise is an issue. The polar pattern also helps avoid feedback in high-volume recording situations.
Two Three-Position Switches Allow Quick Tonal Adjustments
The PDX720 has two dedicated switches enabling you to modify the tone to suit your needs. The high-pass switch attenuates unwanted low frequencies at 120Hz or 155Hz to reduce rumble. The presence boost switch adds extra clarity at 1.5dB or 3dB to accentuate vocal and instrument high end. With these tonal-shaping tools built-in, you can achieve your desired sound quickly without complicated mixing.
Premium Build and Components for Reliable Professional Use
The PDX720 is designed to meet the demands of professional studio use. It features a durable metal chassis and grille, high-quality internal components and a balanced XLR output. Whether recording takes, overdubs or final tracks, the PDX720 provides consistent, high-fidelity audio take after take. Its solid build and premium components ensure reliability for years of intensive use.
Excellent for Vocals, Drums and Instruments
While optimized for vocal recording, the PDX720 also excels on a variety of other sources. Its full low end and crisp highs work well for recording kick drums, snares and percussion. The mic's wide frequency range and balanced tone also make it a great choice for acoustic guitar, piano and amplifier recording. With its versatility and high-quality audio, the PDX720 is a workhorse microphone suited for nearly any studio application.
