A studio condenser microphone featuring a cardioid polar pattern, a 20Hz-20kHz frequency response and a 130dB maximum SPL.
The Tascam TM-180 Studio Condenser Microphone features a cardioid polar pattern, a 20Hz-20kHz frequency response and a 130dB maximum SPL. The TM-180 features a large 34mm pure gold-coated diaphragm, often characterised by its bright sounds. The TM-180 includes a professional-use suspension to avoid noise mixing due to the microphone vibration during recording. The frequency response shows a distinct curve at 1kHz or higher with a loose peak especially around 9kHz. Ideal for a recording of single sound source, with unidirectional characteristics to catch the target sound, the TM-180 is ideal for recording vocal and any single sound source because it mainly picks up the sound from the specified direction. A -10dB switch and a low cut filter switch smooths out the harshness from instruments. The TM-180 comes with a suspension shockmount, a soft mic case and a hard case
