GENERAL
Designed to provide very clean and natural sound reproduction while presenting a slim, neat appearance, the Model SM60 is also a very rugged and versatile microphone. The built-in wind and pop filter assures very effective control of breath noise and “popping” when the microphone is used close, and removes the need for add-on windscreens for outdoor use. The performance, small size, and ruggedness of the SM60 make it an ideal choice for on-camera or on-stage use by vocalists and M.C.’s, for studio and remote interviews, news, sports, and a variety of similar applications.
Microphone Features:
nCompact size, advanced styling, excellent handling feel.
nSmooth, natural sound from wide, slightly tailored frequency response.
nBuilt-in wind and “pop” filter to minimize breath and wind noise.
nRugged-will retain its performance and handsome appearance even under severe field or stage use.
nVersatility-appearance and size suitable for the
most glamorous application, in the hand or on a stand-yet rugged enough for strenuous field and location use.
