The switchable studio condenser microphone UM 930 combines modern large diaphragm capsule technology with the latest in semiconductor circuit topology. The optimized dual-capsule assembly opens up new applications in the recording technique. Among conventional switching technique there is the possibility of attaching a twin-Version, viz. microphones can be used with two directional pattern at the same time.
Under type designation UM 930 twin a special version is equipped with one fixed cardioid directivity pattern, and five additional user-selectable directivities. The 5-pin XLR connector enables the separate capsule directivity patterns to be used simultaneously.This makes it possible for the recording engineer to compare the directional properties against the reference cardioid during live recording a well as in post production.
