The ART M-Two is one of the most versatile compact side-address
wide diaphragm condenser microphones available. A cardioid
polar pattern with two position pad and two position low
frequency roll-off switches make it the ideal studio condenser
microphone for solo vocal or instrument recordings where
subtlety and clarity is paramount.
As a cardioid condenser microphone the M-Two picks up only
sound directly in front of the microphone while sounds from
sides and back of the microphone are rejected increasing
isolation and delivering controlled directionality.
In live sound and remote recording applications, the M-Two’s
cardioid pattern offers excellent feedback rejection and better
isolation and will give you the best results on most vocal
applications and a wide range of solo instruments including
background brass and woodwinds, acoustic stringed instruments
(violin, viola and cello), drums and percussion. It offers full
frequency response at the front of the microphone with a very
controlled and predictable proximity effect – the increased low
frequency response when the microphone is placed close to
sound source.
Vocalists can use the proximity effect to their advantage, adding
fullness and more 'bottom end' to the voice. Experienced
vocalists can easily incorporate it as part of their overall
microphone technique.
Note:
The cardioid symbol on the microphone housing denotes
the 'live side', or front face of the microphone that in all cases
should face the performer.
Controls on the microphone itself include a -6 & -12dB pad switch,
allowing distortion-free reproduction of extremely loud at-source
signals, and a two position -12dB/octave low frequency roll off at
100Hz & 200Hz that reduces unnecessary low end 'boominess'
and low frequency interference.
As a condenser microphone, the ART M-Two requires phantom
power to operate. A subtle recessed LED under the gold capsule
