The Model 330 UNI-RON® is a compact and rugged unidirectional rib­bon microphone combining wide range response and a supercardioid direc­tional pattern. The microphone has been acoustically designed to suppress rear sound and provide a wide front pickup pattern. This polar pattern is somewhat more directional than the conventional cardioid, providing excellent control of unwanted surrounding noise and re­ver­ber­a­tion. The performance characteristics are ideal for studio use in broad­cast­ing and recording and for critical sound reinforcement applications.
