General

The PL series by Electro Voice is a dynamic microphone designed for professional live and studio bass drum amplification. Its frequency response is such that it reproduces the natural sound of your bass drum without having to make adjustments to the tone. It produces tight bass tones, has an adjusted mid-range specifically for kick drums, and the trebles deliver the kind of detail that drummers love to hear. This microphone is equipped with a neodymium magnet structure and thereby delivers a higher output signal than comparable microphones.

Super-cardioid polar pattern

The super-cardioid polar pattern ensures that your kick drum sound is well isolated from other drum sounds in the vicinity, which makes mixing your drum kit a lot nicer, because there is little crosstalk. Moreover, this polar pattern also makes more gain possible before the PL 33 starts to feedback. This means it can work with a high sound pressure, which is certainly desirable for a bass drum. This microphone delivers a more dynamic drum sound, and with it you can really bring your drum kit to life.

Capsule protection

The PL 33's capsule is protected in a number of ways. The most obvious safety feature is the 2-ply metal grille, which ensures that the microphone won't have any issues with air flow noise. Intense air streams are produced around the port in the resonant head of your kick drum, and microphones typically translate that into low noise. But the PL 33 doesn't have any issues with that! Furthermore, the grille's interior is lined with a foam layer that keeps air noise out. Finally, another extra layer of foam is also located directly above the capsule to protect it from dust and the like.

Electro Voice PL 33 dynamic bass drum microphone
Wrote the following about Electro Voice PL 33 dynamic bass drum microphone
Geweldige microfoon! Voor het opnemen van kick drum, of een bas versterker is dit in mijn ogen een van de beste keuzes voor je geld.

Het geluid van de PL-33 is in vergelijking tot alternatieven in deze categorie mic's, een stuk minder heftig gekleurd qua EQ. Wat resulteert in een mic die erg breed inzetbaar is, en een geluids opname geeft die zonder te veel nabewerking hoeven te gebruiken, goed klinkt in je mix (live al dan wel studio).

De microfoon heet een praktisch ontwerp en is solide gebouwd, evenals de meegeleverde accessoires, namelijk; een klem voor bevestiging op een microfoon standaard, en een leren etui met rits.

Een absolute aanrader, portemonnee vriendelijk, idiot-proof, en het belangrijkste; heerlijk geluid.
