For Live Vocal and Speech    Classic Microphone Design    Cardioid Polar Pattern    Durable All-Metal Construction    Wide Frequency Response    XLR Output Connector

The M-70 doesn't require batteries or phantom power to operate. Just plug it in, set your levels, and go to work.

The M-70 features a durable all-metal construction that ensures if the mic is dropped or bumped, it will survive the rigors of the road or stage.

The balanced XLR output ensures that you won't pick up unwanted static or hum from interference into the signal path.

The M-70's cardioid polar pattern rejects off-axis sound and focuses on the sound directly in front of the mic capsule. This helps prevent feedback in a live room with a PA system and rejects the audio-bleed from speakers while focusing on your voice or instrument.

The M-70 captures sound with a 50 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response and is designed to capture the nuances of your voice or instrument in full detail.

The M-70 microphone's tapered shape, rounded grille, and gray matte finish is built with a classic, natural look.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. does it permit the use of a 3.5 input socket to a Camcorder or DSLR camera ?

A: You may be able to use this mic with a camcorder or DSLR (providing that the impedance is within range -- check your camera manual for mic input impedance specs). However, due to its transformerless design, this mic may introduce noise or hum into the recorded audio.

Q: 2. Would I be able to use a XLR-TO-USB SIGNAL ADAPTER with this mic to record directly into my laptop? Thinking a Blue Microphones Icicle XLR to USB Mic Converter/Mic Preamp or a SHURE X2U XLR-TO-USB SIGNAL ADAPTER would work for this?

A: Either of these adapters will work, however, the Icicle has been discontinued, and the Shure is much better quality.

Q: 3. Does it require phantom power?

A: The PreSonus PD-70 does not require phantom power.

Q: 4. I understand it's a dynamic mic, but is the switch quiet even if I need to have phantom power on for other mics?

A: Yes the Sennheiser e835S has a silent switch. It's also a good sounding mic that you would expect to pay a bit more for.

Q: 5. Does this microphone put out a balanced signal?

A: I have a Pyle PDM MIC 58 which essentially the same mic as this one. The mic does not come wired as a balanced mic but I found this video where you can perform a simple mod. Go to youtube and search for Pyle PDMIC78 Microphone - SM-57 Knockoff it's posted by a guy named Bob H.If you are making a short run (less than 20 feet) to your mixer or input source, you may not even need to balance it though. I have been using mine with the supplied 15 foot xlr to 1/4 mono cable and it sounds great into my Zoom H1 recorder. This is a great value and instead of everyone asking why this is so much less than the Shure SM57, the question should be why is the SM57 so expensive?I have one of these in my cart and will be getting one with my next order to go along with the PD MIC 58.

Q: 6. does this microphone require phantom power?

A: No, it is a dynamic mic

Q: 7. Can we use PreSonus PD-70 for record/singing YouTube videos?

A: The PD-70 is intended for use in broadcast applications, but more for speaking than singing. If the primary application is singing, you may want to consider a microphone designed for singing, like the Shure SM58-LC Vocal Microphone (B&H # SHSM58LC) or Sennheiser e 835 Cardioid Handheld Dynamic Microphone (B&H # SEE835) which are both good for performance and recording, or the Audio-Technica AT2035 Cardioid Condenser Microphone (B&H # AUAT2035) or AKG Project Studio P220 Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone (B&H # AKP220B) which are large diaphragm condenser mics for studio and live performance. B&H has a vast selection of microphones so please feel free to contact us by phone or through live chat on the website if you would like further assistance.
