Heil Sound The Fin Chrome Body Red LED Retro Microphone
The Fin microphone from Heil Sound Ltd. was featured prominently in the ad campaign for the 2012 smash hit movie ‘The Hunger Games’, (as well as the sequel ‘Catching Fire’), for its amazing looks. The Fin combines that “vintage mic look”, with a blend of futuristic, and TIMELESS, all in one shiny microphone. However, The Fin is a professional microphone with all the qualities you could ask for in a dynamic cardioid microphone, it just happens to be one of the coolest looking mics you’ve ever seen.
Best-in-class, smooth, flat response from the shock mounted, large, low mass diaphragm element driven by a powerful magnet, will reward you with rich sound throughout its broad frequency range. The Fin is great in the studio, or live, and it particularly exhibits excellent upper mids.
The Fin has a beautifully sculpted body that is double-chromed in a three-stage plating process. Horizontal fins accent its soft angular profile. As an added bonus, The Fin glows via the four L.E.D. lights inside, which can be turned on and off from via the phantom power from the mixing board. This can make for a dramatic effect, or create that “certain vibe” to enhance your next performance. Check it out…The Fin microphone from Heil is turning heads…A lot of heads! The Fin is stocked in chrome and matte black bodies. Each version has either red, white or blue foam color/LEDs. The foam color and LEDs can also be changed to green or yellow by custom order.
Polar Pattern: Cardioid
The cardioid directional microphone is designed to be most sensitive to sounds coming directly from the front and less sensitive to sounds coming from the sides and back. This directional pattern resembles the shape of a heart (hence the name "cardioid") and is ideal for situations where it is necessary to focus on a single sound source and minimize ambient noise.
Capsule Type: Dynamic
A dynamic microphone is a type of microphone that works by moving a coil in a magnetic field. This mechanism allows you to capture sound waves and convert them into electrical signals. Dynamic microphones provide a natural and warm sound with excellent handling of loud sound sources such as vocals, drums, or electric instruments. Their directionality usually prevents unwanted ambient sounds from being picked up, which reduces background noise.
