[. . . ] Proximity effect can be used to your advantage when a thin voice is being recorded. As the vocalist decreases their working distance to the microphone, the low frequency content is enhanced. Closeup positioning of the microphone will also reduce the potential for feedback from the sound reinforcement system. When close-talked, the bass-boost provides an increase in overall microphone output level. The mixer gain may be proportionately reduced, resulting in a reduction of the system's sensitivity to feedback caused by the sound entering the microphone from the loudspeakers. Warranty: This Electro-Voice® PL44 product is guaranteed against malfunction due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of three (3) years from the date of original purchase. Please refer to the Limited Warranty card included with your product for further warranty information.
