The microphone is based on the Electro-Voice 664 from the 1950s and has a specially tuned dynamic capsule. The capsule provides clear upper mids while reducing excess highs to limit feedback and harshness. The new model also offers effective noise rejection and off-axis control for work in noisy environments. An internal shock absorber protects the capsule from handling noise and general stage vibration. The product comes with a rigid mount and an EVA foam case.
