Description
Front-of-house engineers chasing gain before feedback will appreciate what the SR20 brings to a monitor-heavy stage: a cardioid pattern so uniform that off-axis response stays flat out to 90 degrees. That means a vocalist working the mic at an angle sounds just as detailed and present as one singing dead-center, while rejection at the rear keeps stage wash and floor monitors from bleeding into the channel.
The electret condenser capsule delivers a clean, transparent on-axis response tuned for vocal intelligibility rather than added color — close up it reads warm without turning boomy, and the windscreen assembly is designed to tame plosives so hard consonants don’t blow out the capsule. Handling up to 145dB SPL, the SR20 has the headroom to sit in front of brass, drums, guitar cabs, and other loud sources without folding under pressure, pulling out low-level detail that lower-SPL mics tend to smear.
Remove the windscreen and the mic’s response widens, opening up pickup area — a useful trick for choir sections, backing vocal groups, or any source where a broader capture window matters more than tight rejection.
- Patented near-perfect cardioid pattern stays flat across the front hemisphere, even at 90 degrees off-axis
- High rear rejection translates to more usable gain before feedback on monitor-dense stages
- Removable windscreen assembly controls plosives and unlocks a wider pickup pattern for choirs and group vocals
- 145dB SPL handling makes it viable as an instrument mic for piano, guitar, drums, brass, and woodwinds
- Suited to live sound reinforcement, studio tracking, houses of worship, and presentation or meeting spaces
Rider-friendly and rig-scalable, the SR20 slots into vocal chains, drum overheads, or instrument setups without asking the room to compromise on transparency.
