Expert Audio Engineering Commentary

Tonal Profile

Broadcast dynamic, 75 Hz to 18 kHz - the low end is cut in the capsule itself, not by a switch, so there is no way to get it back.

Gain Staging Advice

-56.0 dBV/Pa (1.60 mV at 94 dB SPL) puts it 3 dB above an SM7B - close enough that interfaces which hiss on an SM7B will hiss here too. The 320-ohm output impedance and the 745 g mass both come from the same heavy internal capsule assembly.
