GeneralDescription:

The Electro-Voice® RE410 is a professional quality hand- held condenser microphone that was designed specifically for vocalists, yet has the versatility, smooth response, and dynamic range to make it outstanding for virtually any application. The RE410 is the ideal vocal microphone for anyone that appreciates the crisp high end and warm proximity effect that can only come from a top performing condenser microphone. The response of the RE410 is tailored to provide just a slight amount of “air” in the 5 to 10kHz area, enhancing the sound without adding stridency. The RE410 features a cardioid polar pattern that provides great rear rejection and a smooth off-axis response that’s perfect for performers who tend to “wander” around the mic.

ApplicationNotes:

The low frequency response of the RE410 microphone varies with the distance from the sound source. Known as “proximity effect,” maximum bass response is produced in “close-up” use with the microphone 1/4 inch from the sound source. Normal bass response is experienced with working distances greater than 24 inches. Working close to the microphone will produce a more robust sound. Close up positioning of the microphone will also reduce the potential for feedback from the sound reinforcement system. When close-talked, the bass-boost provides an increase in overall microphone output level. The mixer gain may be proportionately reduced, resulting in a reduction of the system’s sensitivity to feedback caused by sound entering the microphone from the loudspeakers.

RE410 specifications

The Electro-Voice RE410 is a versatile and high-performance handheld microphone designed for live performances, broadcasting, and studio applications. Renowned for its clear sound reproduction and exceptional sound isolation, the RE410 is a popular choice among vocalists and sound engineers.

One of the key features of the RE410 is its supercardioid pickup pattern. This design allows the microphone to capture sound primarily from the front, while effectively rejecting noise from the sides and rear. This characteristic is invaluable in live settings, where feedback and ambient noise can interfere with sound quality. The supercardioid pattern ensures that vocalists can perform confidently without compromising audio integrity.

The RE410 incorporates a dynamic transducer, which is known for its durability and ability to handle high sound pressure levels. This makes the microphone well-suited for both loud stages and quieter environments. The dynamic design also contributes to its low self-noise, preserving the clarity of the sound source and ensuring that the nuances of each performance are captured accurately.

One of the standout technologies in the RE410 is its patented 'Dual-Purpose' capsule, which enhances frequency response across a wide range. This feature allows for an extended low-frequency response that enriches lower vocal tones while maintaining clarity in the mid and high frequencies. Whether used for singing or spoken word applications, the RE410 delivers a balanced and natural sound that many artists and audio professionals appreciate.

The microphone also includes a rugged metal construction that provides durability and reliability. This robust build means the microphone can withstand the rigors of touring and frequent use, ensuring longevity in performance situations. Additionally, the RE410 features a built-in pop filter that minimizes plosive sounds, further enhancing the microphone's suitability for vocal applications.

Overall, the Electro-Voice RE410 stands out for its combination of advanced microphone technologies, exceptional sound quality, and rugged construction. These characteristics make it an excellent choice for both professional and aspiring vocalists, enabling them to deliver powerful performances with clarity and confidence. Whether in a studio or on a live stage, the RE410 is equipped to meet the varied demands of modern audio applications.
