dB Technologies RE520

The Electro Voice RE520 is a high-quality, powerful condenser supercardioid vocal microphone. Designed to reveal the exceptional details and vibrant clarity associated with condenser elements, it elegantly delivers the lyrical finesse required for expressive vocal performances while simultaneously controlling off-axis sound from nearby sources.

The tonal signature is detailed, full, and vibrant, with a warm and clear bass range, a natural and present midrange, and an open, crisp, and detailed high end.

The supercardioid pattern provides excellent acoustic isolation. Maximum feedback suppression occurs when a stage monitor is positioned either 225° or 125° off-axis from the element. This pattern also allows for a cleaner mix by rejecting off-axis sound. The multi-layer pop filter consists of two layers of dense, air-separated foam that dampens wind speed caused by breath and gusts.

The vocal microphone operates in the frequency range of 40 Hz to 20 kHz.

The high-pass filter has two positions: the flat position delivers the full frequency bandwidth of the capsule, while the high-pass position attenuates frequencies below 150 Hz.

The internal shock mount isolates the microphone element from vibrations and protects against handling noise.
