General Description:
N/D478
N/DYM
®
 Dynamic Cardioid
Instrumental Microphone
Key Features:
VOB
TM
 technology provides tailored bass
response for controlled “proximity effect” and
exceptional vocal clarity
Cardioid pattern for superior feedback rejec-
tion and acoustic isolation
Excellent choice for micing acoustical or
electrical instruments whether in a live sound
or studio environment
Neodymium based magnet structure pro-
vides greater sensitivity and signal-to-noise
ratio
Warm Grip
TM
 handle for more comfortable feel
and lower handling noise
The N/D478’s acoustic response presents optimal
performance in both a live sound or studio environment.The
new “vocally optimized bass” or VOB™ technology provides
the instrumentalist with reduced resonant distortion at low
frequencies. Critical damping of the low frequency resonant
peak has resulted in a microphone that replaces the
“muddiness” found in competitive models with greater
warmth and increased clarity. The result is a exceptional
performing instrument microphone with clean, clear,
consistent sound that “cuts through the mix.”
Operation
The low frequency response of the N/D478 microphone
varies with the distance from the sound source. Known as
“proximity effect,” maximum bass response is produced in
“close-up” use with the microphone 1/4 inch from the sound
source. Normal bass response is experienced with working
distances greater than 24 inches.Working close to the
microphone will produce a more robust sound. Close up
positioning of the  microphone will also reduce the potential
for feedback from the sound reinforcement system.When
close-miced, the bass-boost provides an increase in overall
microphone output level.The mixer gain may be
proportionately reduced, resulting in a reduction of the
system’s sensitivity to feedback caused by sound entering
the microphone from the loudspeakers.
