Presentation
AB pair: ideal for creating a wide stereo image
XY pairing: ideal for high stereo accuracy, thanks to a reduced phase difference between the two channels
Combined with the dual A/D converter, 32-bit floating-point audio processing and a sampling frequency of up to 192 kHz, these microphones capture every sound, from the faintest whisper to the loudest show.
