MICROPHONES

If you don't already have experience of hiring microphones and radio mics, here are a few pointers to help you choose what to hire. Dynamic microphones are good for many purposes such as vocals and instruments and they'll work with pretty much any mixer. Condenser mics require external 'phantom' power although some can work from a battery. Condenser mics are usually more sensitive than dynamic mics, especially at higher frequencies. Cardioid describes the pickup pattern as a rough heart shape; most sensitive directly in front and least sensitive immediately behind. A hypercardioid mic has a longer, narrower pickup pattern but usually also has a small sensitive patch just behind the mic. PZMs collect sound via a solid surface, thus giving an even response within a particular area and making them good for ambient room or stage sound. Radio mic hire is available as handheld, headset or tie clip kits. We deal with the licensing you'll need for them and will provide you with a copy when you collect the hire. Radio mic tie clip capsules and lightweight headsets are delicate; please be careful.
