PreSonus PD-70 Dynamic Vocal Microphone

The front-address PD-70 from PreSonus is an ideal dynamic microphone for the human voice. Featuring a solid frequency curve with a subtle bass roll-off and a slight emphasis on the higher end for clarity and a bit of sparkle, this microphone is ideal for the frequencies most prevalent in speaking or singing. The PD-70 covers the requisite 20-hertz-to-20-kilohertz range and delivers enough sensitivity and headroom for fullness. The sturdy chassis is built around a rotating swivel that allows speakers to position the microphone either directly on-axis or slightly off-center to minimize bass resonance. And, because the cardioid pattern is front address, it isolates background and room noise nicely. Just plug it into a preamp or interface and start recording.
