The Electro-Voice ND96 Supercardioid Vocal Microphonefrom Electro-Voice ND96 Supercardioid Vocal Microphoneproduces exceptionally high gain before feedback and is effective on loud stages in large concert and arena-sized venues. Designed to offer superior sound quality, acoustic control, and robustness, the microphone features a large diaphragm capsule, which takes the technology of the original N/Dym capsule to better levels of sonic performance.

Humbucking coil guards protect against line hum and allow you to use it with confidence near speaker cabinets and EMF-generating equipment racks. Plus, a selectable voice presence booster switch reduces certain low-mid frequencies and emphasizes key upper-midrange vocal presence for a more profound vocal edge when driving the voice higher in the mix. The Memraflex grille resists denting and can withstand rough treatment on the stage or in the studio environment.

Finally, vocalists, sound engineers, and musicians can benefit from easy setup due to the ND96's innovative features that solve typical instrument and mic placement challenges in large stage-type productions.
