SGM3416L, SGM3416 specifications

The Azden SGM3416L and SGM3416 are advanced shotgun microphones designed specifically for video production professionals seeking high-quality audio capture. Renowned for their superior sound quality and reliability, these microphones are particularly suited for on-location recording and filmmaking, where capturing clear dialogue and ambient sound is crucial.

One of the standout features of the SGM3416L and SGM3416 is their highly directional pickup pattern. This supercardioid design effectively isolates sound sources in front of the microphone while minimizing ambient noise from the sides and rear. This characteristic makes the microphones ideal for use in noisy environments, ensuring that dialogue remains clear and intelligible.

The SGM3416L model offers a unique low-cut filter switch, allowing users to reduce low-frequency noise such as wind rumble or handling noise. This filter enhances the overall clarity of recordings, making it especially useful for outdoor shoots where unpredictable sounds can interfere with audio quality. The SGM3416, on the other hand, retains standard frequency response but offers incredible versatility across various shooting scenarios.

Both microphones are equipped with a frequency response range of 40 Hz to 20 kHz, providing an accurate representation of sound across the audible spectrum. This broad frequency range ensures that not only is dialogue captured clearly, but also the rich ambient sounds that contribute to the overall production value.

In terms of construction, the Azden SGM3416L and SGM3416 are built with durability in mind. The microphones feature a robust aluminum body that can withstand the rigors of field use, making them ideal companions for any videographer or content creator. Additionally, both models come with a shock mount that effectively reduces handling noise, further enhancing the quality of recorded audio.

The sensitivity levels of the SGM3416L and SGM3416 are impressive, ensuring strong audio output even at a distance from the sound source. These microphones can be powered by standard AA batteries, making them highly accessible and easy to use in various settings without the worry of complex power requirements.

In conclusion, the Azden SGM3416L and SGM3416 shotgun microphones stand out for their exceptional directional audio capture, low-frequency filtering, broad frequency response, durable construction, and user-friendly operation. Whether you're shooting a documentary, narrative film, or any other video project, these microphones are engineered to deliver high-quality sound, making them an invaluable tool for audio professionals.
