Professional Sound Corporation is proud to introduce our new DV SGM1 microphone.
This new microphone offers truly professional sound quality in a compact, lightweight
package. Designed to offer flat, smooth frequency response and a low self-noise
artifact, the new DV SGM1 microphone sets new standards in size, performance and
affordability. The DV SGM1 is perfect for all types of professional audio recording in the
field. Weighing in at a mere 2.7oz (76.6gm), this hyper-cardioid pick-up pattern,
compact shotgun microphone provides excellent off-axis sound rejection, superior
frequency response and real world ease of use. It’s ultra light weight design makes it
nearly unnoticeable when mounted to a camera. The DV SGM1 is powered from
conventional 48PH microphone Power.
The accessories included with the DV SGM1 consist of:
A Foam Windscreen that is used to provide the microphone with wind protection in up
to moderate wind conditions. When installed on the microphone, the windscreen creates
an area of “dead” air space surrounding the microphone and thus minimizing the effects
of wind rumble.
A Koala MiniMax tm High Wind Fur Cover is used to provide extra protection from low
frequency wind rumble when using the microphone in higher wind conditions. The
product from Koala is used over the existing foam windscreen and provides additional
protection. Its synthetic fur is specially designed to “lay over” in the wind and thus create
the least wind noise possible.
The DV SGM1 Shock Mount has been designed to compliment the SGM1 microphone.
Its special durameter silicone bands have been designed to provide a high degree of
reduction in microphone handling noise. These bands effectively isolate the microphone
from the camera or boom pole.
The Shock Mount Adapters are supplied for different types of use. One contains a 3/8-
16 threaded block that is used when mounting the shock mount to a boom pole. The
other is a specially designed, offset riser, camera shoe adapter. This is used when you
wish to mount the shock mount to any video camera.
