Heil Sound PR 22 UT Handheld Cardioid Dynamic Microphone (Stainless Steel Grille)

Overview

The Heil Sound PR 22 UT is a handheld cardioid dynamic microphone designed for articulate reproduction of vocals, speech, instruments, amplifier cabinets, and drums in studios, clubs, houses of worship, and live stage applications. Though sonically identical to the PR 22, the PR 22 UT sports a stainless steel grille in place of the PR 22's interchangeable silver, black, and gold grilles. The dynamic microphone element features a composite magnet for increased strength and a cardioid polar pattern, which provides significant rear rejection and immunity to feedback. With a 145 dB maximum SPL and a frequency response of 50 Hz to 18 kHz, it is well suited to a wide variety of sources.

The patent-pending ISO BAND isolation mounting impedes handling noise and rumble from vibrations. Plosives and wind noise are attenuated via the included foam windscreen. The balanced XLR 3-pin output ensures compatibility with most microphone preamps, mixer inputs, portable PA systems, and audio interfaces. A mic clip and carrying bag are also included with the PR 20 UT.
