The M1250B is designed to mic acoustic instruments, overhead stages, podiums, conferences and presentations.

Polar Patterns

Cardioid

In general, the cardioid pattern is the most widely used as it offers a good balance between the sound of the instrument or voice within the context of the room or venue. The cardioid pattern is also helpful with resistance to feedback. For acoustic instruments, in general, the working range will depend on the sound pressure levels produced by the instrument. Because of its small size, the M1250B can also be used in hard to reach areas, such as beneath a cymbal. For orchestral instruments, the M1250B may be positioned anywhere from 3 - 12 inches depending on instrument and room acoustics. For speech or singe voice the typical working distance is 8 - 10 inches. For area miking or group vocals the working distance can be between 2 - 3 feet from the sound source.

Hypercardioid

In situations where the volume is loud on stage or there are many open microphones, this pattern is helpful in further isolating the instrument or vocal from the rest of the instruments on stage. The microphone can be worked at ½ the distance of cardioid if necessary.
