The Electro-Voice RE20 is a professional-grade dynamic cardioid microphone renowned for its consistent performance across broadcast, studio, and live sound environments. Featuring Electro-Voice’s Variable-D® technology, it minimizes proximity effect, allowing close-mic applications without exaggerated bass response. Its large Acoustalloy diaphragm and low-mass aluminum voice coil deliver a smooth, flat frequency response from 45 Hz to 18 kHz, making it ideal for voice-over work, podcasting, and instrument recording—especially kick drums and acoustic guitars. The RE20’s steel housing and humbucking coil provide robust shielding against electromagnetic interference, while an internal shock mount and integrated pop filter reduce handling noise and plosives. With its true cardioid pattern and off-axis rejection, the RE20 maintains clarity and focus even in acoustically challenging environments.
