Expert Audio Engineering Commentary

Tonal Profile

Shotgun built around a rechargeable battery and an auto-sensing 3.5 mm output that switches between line and mic level by itself; USB-C makes it a plain interface.

Gain Staging Advice

-26 dBV/Pa with a 10 ohm output impedance is a rare pair: this is the loudest microphone in this batch and the only one that behaves like a line source. Most interface preamps need almost no gain here, and the 10 ohm output drives long cables and low-impedance inputs without loss.
