Electrovoice RE90P-12

The RE90P-12 and RE90P-18 quick-mount gooseneck cardioid condenser microphones are designed for sound reinforcement applications requiring high quality, wide response and a uniform polar pattern in a slender, adjustable gooseneck microphone. They can be employed on lecterns, podiums, and on mixing consoles as a talk-back microphone or other applications which require a quick plug-in gooseneck microphone.

The RE90P-12/-18 are phantom-powered "backelectret" miniature condenser gooseneck microphones with uniform cardioid polar patterns and frequency response for natural sound and high resistance to feedback. All-metal construction provides high resistance to interference. The back-electret feature provides greater sensitivity, wider frequency response, and superior immunity from handling noise than a diaphragm-electret microphone. The RE90P-12/-18 are mechanically designed for quick, easy mounting to a lectern, pulpit or podium equipped with a bulkhead female XLR-type 3-pin receptacle. The frequency response is tailored for full-range sound reproduction with natural sound pick-up optimized for close-up use. The small-diameter gooseneck has two supple joints and a rigid center tube. The rigid tube prevents unsightly twisting of the gooseneck but permits the user to exactly position the microphone. The electronics housing has a 3/4-inch diameter base terminated with an XLR-type 3-pin connector which allows the microphone to be plugged directly into an existing panel-mount XLR-type receptacle. The electronics' output circuit utilizes a transformerless balanced construction with a low-output impedance, which is typically 200 ohms. This permits very long cable runs without degrading the microphone performance. The RE90P-12 and RE90P-18 require 9-52V phantom power.

The RE90P-12 is the 12-inch version; the RE90P-18 18-inch version is also available.
