A
microphone with a very focused, highly directional polar pattern.
Also known as a line microphone. Generally has a fairly long tube which helps the microphone reject off-access signals. Used almost exclusively in location sound recording though they can be found in some theatre sound applications. May come in condensor or dynamic configurations. |
