The Heil PR-40 has become the darling of the podcast industry
with a frequency range of 28 Hz. to 18 kHz. It has a great articulate mid range rise at 5K (instead
of the usual nasal sounding 2 or 3k), so there is no need for any EQ. Producing the widest frequency
range available in a dynamic microphone with superb natural voice articulation.
The pattern control of the Heil PR-40 is outstanding. Creating outstanding cardiod patterns with unbelievable rear rejection that removes unwanted sounds that try to enter from the off axis rear. The Pr-40 uses two different diameter mesh screens and an internal breath blast filter allow the user to talk closely to the microphone with little worry of pops or excessive sibilance. The internal hum bucking coil removes any worry of using the PR-40 near monitor screens or noisy lighting fixtures and controls.

PR-35: Designed for commercial broadcast, recording and live sound reinforcement
applications which require a smooth flat response over a wide frequency range. The PR 35 was
designed around the acclaimed PR 30 element and incorporates a sorbothane shock mount to give
the best possible results.
The PR 35 achieves its exceptional performance by using a special magnet structure and a large aluminum 1 1/2" low mass voice coil assembly. A carefully wound and placed hum bucking coil allows the PR 35 to be used close to video monitors without unwanted hum or buzz. Special attention has been paid to the phasing plug assembly with equally placed ports that sense audio from behind the source. It then enters them out of phase thus producing a very linear cardioid pattern. This reduces the proximity effect while achieving the extreme articulation across its smooth 40 Hz- 18 kHz frequency response. The new Heil element can be used in extreme high sound pressure levels and is immune to overload conditions. It produces a beautifully smooth audio response without the inconvenience of phantom or outside d.c. powering. The PR 35 is equipped with a three position roll off switch. The first position is flat, the second position rolls off at approximately -3 dB and the last position rolls off at approximately -6 dB. The cardioid pattern offers the greatest rejection of unwanted audio at 180 degrees off axis, which is directly behind the microphone; there is virtually no off-axis coloration. Supplied with a microphone clip that mounts to any 5/8"-27 mic thread. It also comes with an aluminum carrying case.

Heil PR-20: The Heil PR-20 represents completely new dynamic microphone technology
designed for a wide range of professional applications such as live sound, commercial broadcast,
and sophisticated recording. Its wide frequency range outperforms the tired, 30+ year old industry
technology and can withstand huge amounts of SPL. The end result is a microphone that can answer the
call to any application. For example, the gorgeous upper mid range makes the PR-20 the absolute best
live vocal microphone, while its outstanding frequency response and superb dynamic range suit it
perfectly for use with a snare drum.
Since 1982, Heil Sound has been the leading manufacturer of communications microphones and has a paramount understanding of phasing. When properly applied, this knowledge creates outstanding cardiod patterns with unbelievable rear rejection that removes unwanted sounds that try to enter from the off axis rear. The pattern control of the Heil PR-20 is outstanding. This exceptional performance is achieved by using the ideal combination of materials for the large low mass diaphragm and a special mixture of neodymium, iron, and boron that gives the PR-20 the strongest magnet structure available. In addition to the special magnet structure, the PR-20 achieves its exceptional performance by using a large 1 1/8" low mass voice coil assembly. Special attention has been paid to the phasing plug assembly with equally placed ports that sense audio from behind, entering them out of phase. Thus, the PR-20 produces a very linear cardiod pattern and reduces the proximity effect while achieving perfect articulation. This new Heil element is usable in extreme high sound pressure levels and is immune to overload conditions making it perfect for vocal and live sound applications. The PR-20 is supplied with a leatherette carrying bag, a mic clip and three metal wind screens (black, silver and gold).
