Choose the right pickup pattern
Adapt the PM-3 to different recording situations with three interchangeable capsules. Cardioid, supercardioid, and omnidirectional options give you control over where sound is picked up around the microphone, so you can select a pattern that suits your positioning and recording requirements. Rather than being limited to one fixed polar pattern, you can change the capsule when your setup calls for a different approach. This makes the PM-3 a flexible addition to a recording setup — particularly when your microphone placement or surrounding sound changes between sessions.
Capture a broad frequency range
With a frequency response spanning 30Hz–18kHz, the PM-3 can capture frequencies across a wide range. This gives you useful coverage when recording different sources and means you can work with one microphone across varied setups. Its condenser element has a sensitivity of -38dB±3dB, measured at 1kHz, alongside an output impedance of 100Ω±30% at 1kHz. Together with the interchangeable capsules, these specifications give you a clear set of options for configuring the microphone around the sound you're recording.
Manage different signal levels
The selectable attenuation pad gives you three settings: 0dB, -10dB, and -20dB. This lets you adjust the microphone according to the signal level you're working with, rather than relying on a single fixed setting. Keep attenuation at 0dB when it isn't required, or select -10dB or -20dB when you need additional reduction. Having these controls directly available on the PM-3 makes it straightforward to adapt the microphone as your recording setup changes.
Control unwanted low frequencies
A switchable high-pass filter lets you adjust the PM-3's low-frequency response at the microphone. You can leave the filter switched off or select either the 75Hz or 150Hz setting, giving you two cutoff options when low frequencies need managing. This provides another practical way to tailor the microphone before the signal reaches the rest of your recording setup. A foam windshield is also supplied to help reduce unwanted wind noise, while the included microphone clip makes positioning the PM-3 straightforward.
