5.2 Polar Patterns
The BY-PM700SP features a multi-pattern design, allowing you to select the most appropriate pickup pattern for your recording environment. Use the "PATTERN" knob on the microphone to switch between modes:
- Stereo Pattern: Picks up sound from the left and right sides. Ideal for capturing a realistic, general sound, such as musical performances or ambient recordings.
- Pattern cardioide: Maximizes the rejection of sound coming from the sides and rear of the microphone. This directional pattern is best for capturing rich, natural-sounding audio from a single source directly in front of the mic, such as vocals, speech, or instruments.
- Omnidirectional Pattern: Picks up sound equally from all directions. Suitable for capturing a natural blend of voice and ambiance, group discussions, or when you want to record sounds from around the microphone.
- Bi-directional Pattern: Picks up sound from the front and rear of the microphone, while rejecting sounds from the sides. This pattern is ideal for recording interviews between two people or for capturing instruments from both sides.
