The MXL V57M is a solid-state, large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone designed for studio recording of vocals and instruments. It features a gold-sputtered diaphragm, a 30Hz–20kHz frequency response, and a high SPL handling of up to 130dB, making it versatile for both quiet and loud sound sources. The cardioid pattern focuses on sound from the front while rejecting noise from the sides and rear, and it requires 48V phantom power to operate. Key features
