Electro-Voice PL80 Dynamic Microphone Classic Finish

he PL80c is a premium-grade, supercardioid, dynamic microphone designed to elegantly capture the character of vocals in live sound applications. Its EQ-friendly sonic contour adapts well to any vocal texture, allowing vocals to sit nicely in the mix without sounding harsh. Check out what the users have to say! “Of course I wanted to use these PL80s on the show because I knew they would sound better. But, understandably, the NBC engineers were used to their own mics and were hesitant. When I took one of the PL80s out, one of the older engineers said, “Hey I remember those mics from when I was a kid!’ Long story short: I convinced them to use my mics, we did the show, and they said, “Wow! This is a great microphone! It sounds great, has great rejection around it, and it sounds awesome on television.’ Everyone was very impressed.“ But it still makes its real mark in live sound because it does what other mics can’t. To me, a lot of vocal mics start to have problems when they get to high-frequencies and the sound gets really weak and brittle, but the PL80 has a very warm-sounding high end - you get all the top end you want without any shrillness. It’s especially good in louder live rooms. For these reasons it’s just a cut above the other standard-issue vocal mics out there. Plus it looks really cool!“
