Condenser vocal microphone with super cardioid for clear presence on stage
Premium condenser element delivers a highly detailed, full and lively sound.
Super cardioid directional pattern provides excellent acoustic isolation and feedback control.
Multi-stage pop filter minimizes breath hits and plosives.
Selectable high-pass filter reduces unwanted low-frequency content when switched on.
Vibration-absorbing internal shock mount minimizes handling noise.
The high-pass filter has two positions: the flat position provides the full frequency bandpass of the capsule. The high-pass position attenuates frequencies below 150 Hz.
The internal shock mount isolates the microphone element from vibrations and protects against handling noise.

The Electro Voice RE520 is a high-quality, high-performance condenser supercardioid vocal microphone. Designed to reveal the exceptional detail and vivid clarity synonymous with condenser elements, it elegantly delivers the lyrical finesse required for expressive vocal performances while controlling off-axis sound from close sources.
The sonic signature is detailed, full and vibrant, with a warm and clear bass range, a natural and present midrange and an open, crisp and detailed high end.
The supercardioid pattern provides excellent acoustic isolation. Maximum feedback rejection occurs when a position of the stepped monitor is either 225° or 125° off axis to the element. This pattern also allows for a cleaner mix by rejecting off-axis sound. The multi-stage pop filterconsists of two layers of dense, air-separated foam that dampens the wind speed caused by breath and gusts of wind. The vocal microphone operates in the frequency range 40 Hz-20 kHz.
