N/D767a

N/D YM® Dynamic Supercardioid

Vocal Microphone

General Description:

The N/D767a presents optimal performance in a live
sound environment. The 767a vocal microphone utilizes
EV’s VOB™ (Vocally Optimized Bass) technology to
provide the performer with reduced low-end distortion
and eliminates the muddiness found in other
microphones. Combined with EV’s industry first
neodymium based magnet structure, the N/D767a
offers the power and clarity to “cut through the mix.”

Operation

The low frequency response of the N/D767a
microphone varies with the distance from the sound
source. Known as “proximity effect,” maximum bass
response is produced in “close-up” use with the
microphone 1/4 inch from the sound source. Normal
bass response is experienced with working distances
greater than 24 inches. Working close to the
microphone will produce a more robust sound. Close
up positioning of the microphone will also reduce the
potential for feedback from the sound reinforcement
system. When close-talked, the bass-boost provides an
increase in overall microphone output level. The mixer
gain may be proportionately reduced, resulting in a
reduction of the system’s sensitivity to feedback caused
by sound entering the microphone from the
loudspeakers.

Microphone Use and Placement

Please note that micing techniques are a matter of personal preference. These are merely guidelines to assist in the placement of the
microphone to gain optimal performance.

Usage Optimal Placement

V ocals Zero to six inches from the windscreen, and on axis with the microphone.
Spoken Wor d Five to ten inches from the windscreen, and on axis with the microphone.

Standard Placement & Use Guidelines

1. Always point the microphone at the desired source of sound, and away from any unwanted sources.

2.The microphone should be located close to the sound source to minimize interference from other potential sound sources.

3. Use the 3-to-1 rule when using multiple microphones. Place each microphone three times farther from other microphones as from the
desired sound source.

4. Minimize over-handling of the microphone to reduce unwanted mechanical noise.

5.Working close to the microphone will increase the bass tone and also provide increased gain-before-feedback.
