Distance

Frequency response: from the spec sheet, p. 2. Titled "Frequency response ± 2.5 dB (at 1 m)", "0 dB = 3.2 mV/Pa"; "correspond to a typical production sample". Room and smoothing not stated.

Dashed: outside the rated range, or simulated (other angles and distances). Hover or tap the graphs for values.

Polar pattern

Polar pattern: from the spec sheet, p. 2. Untitled polar under "Frequency response & polar pattern" ("correspond to a typical production sample"); one full circle, 0° at the top, 5 dB rings to -20 dB. Measuring distance not stated.

From the spec sheet
Sensitivity−50 dBV/Pa (3.2 mV/Pa), open circuit, ±2.5 dB. "3.2 mV/Pa (-50 dBV) ±2.5 dB". The graph says "0 dB = 3.2 mV/Pa".p. 1
Output impedance280 ohm, nominal
Rated load impedance1000 ohm, minimum ("≥ 1 kΩ")
Rated frequency range25 Hz to 18 kHz, close miking; also [90, 16000], distant miking, measured at 1 m. "Close miking 25 - 18,000 Hz; Distant miking (measured at 1 m) 90 - 16,000 Hz". The manual's German column gives 90 - 18.000 Hz for the far field; the English and French say 16,000.

Optional accessoriesBMC 05 FM and BMC 10 FM cables; GST 400, GST 500, ST 600 stands; MKV 8 clamp; WS 59 windshield (419.087)p. 1
From the manual
Version with switchTG V70d s: the same with a locking on/off slide switch sunk into the shaft (locked "on" by turning a small screw 90°)p. 1
Pop screenIntegrated foam pop screen, removable for cleaning (unscrew the grille)
Phantom power"The use of phantom powering does not damage the microphone."
Placement (beyerdynamic)Monitors aimed at the mic from the side and behind (about 110°); hold it slightly below the mouth; do not cup the grille
