Electrovoice RE320

Broadcast, Recording & Live: Dynamic Cardioid with 'dual personality' switch

Recently released by EV, this beauty looks set to be a staple for many mic cupboards and kits from here on. Not only does it look remarkably similar to the famous RE20, you'll find a heaps of similarities under the bonnet too. In fact, let's just highlight the differences:

1 - It's Black, for stealth
2 - Neodymium magnet creates higher output with faster transient response and greater high-frequency detail.
3 - No HPF switch
4 - Includes 'dual personality' switch:

Dual Personalilty
RE320 is a serious all-rounder. And like its older, higher priced cousin, is very well suited to the broadcast voice, and is definitely a great choice for instrument recording - guitar amps, horns, percussion will sound great. And for those who have used RE20 for kick drum, you'll be happy to know that RE320 will be a great alternative. A switch between 'flat' (for voice) and 'kick' (with dips and peaks in all the right places)
