The Peavey PVM 480 is a super cardioid condenser microphone that delivers accurate, natural sound reproduction across a wide range of recording applications. Its back-electret condenser element and flat frequency response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz make it a reliable choice for digital sampling, studio and location recording, and instrumental pickup. It is particularly well suited for hi-hat and overhead cymbal work, where precise transient capture and strong off-axis rejection matter most. The super cardioid polar pattern provides 20 dB of front to back rejection, keeping unwanted room noise and stage bleed out of the signal. Built with a rugged brass handle and black powder coat finish, it handles up to 128 dB SPL and runs on any 9V to 52V phantom power source. It comes with a swivel adapter and windscreen included in the box.
