| • very low
distortion • handles incredibly high sound pressure levels
 • totally faithful reproduction of the original sound
 
 The Cardioid Microphone 4012 is a hi-voltage (130 V) condenser
microphone with a linear frequency response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz
(±2 dB) and an incredible SPL handling capability of 168 dB
SPL peak before clipping occurs.
 
 Type 4012 is acoustically identical with the popular Type 4011-TL,
but differs in the powering method which enables the 4012 to handle
these extreme sound pressure levels.
 
 The off-axis characteristics of the 4012 Cardioid Microphone are
totally linear, a unique quality which has taken a lot of attention
to obtain.
 
 So any leakage that occurs from off-axis sound sources is still a
faithful reproduction of these sounds, though attenuated according
to the true first order cardioid pick-up pattern.
 
 Holder and windscreen are included.
