GeneralDescription:

The Electro-Voice®RE200 is a cardioid, true condenser instrument microphone designed for the exacting acoustic reproduction of choirs, strings, percussion and brass instruments in live performance and sound recordings. The RE200 is designed to be used in professional remote recordings, sound reinforcement systems, sound studios and motion picture/TV scoring stages.

The RE200’s frequency response has a continuous presence rise to enhance the sound quality. The excellent transient response and smooth frequency response is gently lifted above 1,000 Hz, lending an open, transparent detail to the recorded sound.

The RE200’s transducer is a true, external biased condenser element based on the RE2000 transducer design. (Most studio recording microphones are true condensers because they have greater sensitivity and stability than an electret element). The diaphragm is ultrathin, goldlaminated, environmentally stabilized and ultralow in mass. The electrode is a precision-cut, singlepiece, ceramic disc layered with gold. The transducer is biased by an internal dc-to-dc converter to ensure that its sensitivity and performance is not dependent on phantom voltage. The RE200 transducer is cradled in an AcoustiDYMTM shock-mount system for mechanical isolation. The RE200’s electronics are designed to operate from 12 to 52 Vdc phantom power.

The RE200 is small, light and rugged, making it ideal for a variety of applications without being obtrusive.

The RE200 is supplied with the model 311 microphone stand clamp, a zippered vinyl carrying pouch and a Wind Tech5700-12 black external foam windscreen.1

RE200 specifications

The Electro-Voice RE200 is a powerful and versatile microphone that has found its place in various audio applications, from live performances to studio recordings. Renowned for its exceptional sound quality and robust build, this microphone is favored by musicians, audio engineers, and broadcasters alike.

One of the standout features of the RE200 is its cardioid polar pattern, which effectively minimizes background noise and feedback. This characteristic allows performers to capture their voice with clarity while reducing unwanted sounds from the sides and rear. The result is a focused audio capture that is essential in live settings where ambient noise can interfere with sound quality.

The RE200 utilizes a dynamic capsule, which provides high sensitivity and a great frequency response. This dynamic design makes it particularly resilient to high sound pressure levels, making it ideal for vocalists and instrument amplifiers. The microphone can handle loud sound sources without distortion, allowing for powerful performances that maintain audio integrity.

Another key technology incorporated into the RE200 is its built-in pop filter. This feature reduces plosive sounds caused by abrupt bursts of air during speech or singing, thus ensuring smoother and more pleasant vocal recordings. This is especially useful in recording environments where clarity is paramount.

Durability is also a significant characteristic of the Electro-Voice RE200. Constructed with high-quality materials, this microphone is designed to withstand the rigors of live performances and studio use. Its rugged design enables it to endure heavy handling and travel, making it a reliable choice for professionals on the move.

The RE200 is adaptable to various applications, thanks to its compatibility with many audio interfaces and mixers. It is equally effective for both vocals and instruments, offering flexibility for different recording and performance scenarios. Whether used in solo acts, bands, or as part of a larger audio setup, the RE200 delivers consistent performance.

In conclusion, the Electro-Voice RE200 stands out as a microphone that combines quality, durability, and versatility. With its cardioid polar pattern, dynamic capsule, built-in pop filter, and robust construction, it meets the demands of a wide range of audio applications. Musicians and audio professionals can rely on the RE200 to deliver exceptional sound quality, making it an invaluable tool in any audio setup.
