MODEL SM94
UNIDIRECTIONAL CONDENSER MICROPHONE
The Model SM94 is a unidirectional electret condenser
microphone tailored to the instrument miking needs of professional
musicians and sound engineers in both live performance and
sound recording. Its smooth, flat frequency response is free of
either a "presence peak" or a low-frequency rolloff, making it a
perfect choice for all types of musical instruments. The SM94 is
equally at home in sound reinforcement systems or in sound
studios and motion picture/TV scoring stages. When used with the
optional windscreen, the SM94 can be used by vocalists and
speechmakers who desire a wide, flat response with minimum
coloration.
The SM94 can be powered by any phantom power source, or by
an internal 1.5-volt AA battery. The battery, which serves as a
backup power source in the event of phantom power failure, can
provide up to 5,000 hours of continuous operation.
The SM94 is supplied with a swivel adapter for use on a
microphone stand, boom or gooseneck, and a zippered vinyl
storage bag. Model SM94-LC is supplied without a cable.
Accessories include a foam windscreen (A3WS), two-channel
phantom power supply (PS1A), and 7.6 m (25 ft.) microphone
cable (C25J).
