Electro-Voice RE20

Pop filtering the RE20 RE27 & RE320

RE20 vs RE27ND

Description
For over 50 years, the Electro-Voice RE20 dynamic cardioid microphone has been the premier choice of recording studios and broadcasters worldwide. The RE20 delivers full-bodied, natural sound for vocals and instruments alike. Its Variable-D design and heavy-duty internal pop filter provide unmatched clarity and definition. An internal shockmount reduces vibration noise, allowing for ultralow handling noise. The RE20 features a true cardioid pattern for maximum rejection of unwanted background noise. Its frequency response is tailored for vocals yet remains consistent regardless of proximity to the mic, avoiding the exaggerated bass of other mics. An easy "bass tilt-down" switch corrects the spectrum balance for long-distance miking or bass attenuation. With a rugged steel housing and humbucking coil, the RE20 is built to withstand the rigors of professional use while resisting electromagnetic interference. For vocal excellence and all-purpose studio performance, the Electro-Voice RE20 is the definitive standard.
Variable-D Design Delivers Natural Articulation
The RE20's innovative Variable-D design utilizes multiple ports and acoustic filters to reduce proximity effect and maintain tonal consistency across a wide range of distances from the mic. Vocals attain a rich yet balanced quality with natural articulation. The RE20 accurately captures the character of any voice or instrument, from subtle details to powerful dynamics. Its tailored frequency response focuses on the critical midrange while providing a smooth extended high end and controlled lows.
Built for Broadcast and Beyond
Originally created for broadcast studios, the RE20's exemplary performance and rugged build have made it a mainstay in recording facilities worldwide. It's high-SPL capacity suits close miking of loud sound sources, while the cardioid pattern rejects unwanted room ambience. The RE20 works equally well on air, in front of a vocal booth, even on the live stage. For podcasting, streaming, voiceovers and more, the RE20 delivers professional results.
A Rock-Solid Reliable Performer
The RE20's solid-steel housing and humbucking coil guard against interference and physical damage. An integral double blast filter protects the internal element from wind noise, breath pops and moisture. Its durable build and consistent performance over decades of use attest to its unparalleled reliability. With proper care and maintenance, a single RE20 can serve for a lifetime.

byDavid
fromSarasota , Florida
Had one of these microphones years ago and had been using the SM7B for spoken word recording and AKG D112 and D12VR for bass drum. I had always liked the RE 20 on Kick drum. so the opportunity to purchase one at a discount price I couldn't resist, and so happy I did. absolutely love this microphone. much bigger sounding bottom end than the SM7B
Re-20 Great microphone!

I use this for recording bass guitar cabinets, guitar cabinets, vocals (on occasion). Very balanced and generally neutral sound compared to, say, a 57, 421 or other dynamics. More of a low-mid punch, which works for mid range heavy or bright sources. Very versatile and great for a diverse microphone arsenal.
I would buy this mic again.

Used for voice recording demo, review, tutorial and other videos. This mic provided the best reproduction of my voice, even better than the legendary Shure SM7B, but then again this mic is also legendary across broadcast studios world-wide.
Great mic for the price!
