Manley Reference Cardioid Microphone $2457 The Manley Reference Cardioid Microphone shares the same electronic attributes as the Gold Reference Series, but has a center-fixed cardioid-only capsule with a thicker gauge (6 micron) gold sputtered diaphragm. With similar film thickness and construction; high frequency resonance (a little edge); proximity effect; and pretty good immunity from pops and sibilance problems, the Reference Cardioid more closely recalls how many of the vintage European tube mics such as the beloved U47 sounded like when they were new.The Manley mic's rich tonal balance and liquid character is consistently admired for instruments such as guitars, drum overheads, saxophone, and especially vocals. With your present mic, if you find yourself leaning on your compressors and boosting 5 or 10K to score a bit more testosterone, then the Reference Cardioid just might be the mic you're looking for. If you seem to be constantly boosting 12-18K and trying to get a clean, intimate sound, then the Reference Gold is definitely a safe bet.A proven hit-maker, the Manley Reference Cardioid Microphone was used to record all the vocals for Britney Spears, N'Sync, and The Backstreet Boys. |

Neumann Tlm-193 Cardioid Condenser Microphone $1599.95 The Neumann TLM-193 is a front-addressed cardioid-pattern microphone ideal for professional recording, live productions, and project studios.Acoustic features The large diaphragm capsule inside the head grille has a very smooth frequency response over a wide acceptance angle. The curves are flat and parallel to the 0 frequency curve up to 10kHz within a pickup angle of 100.The TLM 193 differs from omnidirectional pressure transducers where, due to physical reasons, the diffuse-field and free-field responses never agree. This microphone has a very even diffuse-field response for all polar patterns. This is important in a reverberant environment, as more reflections arrive at the microphone from different directions.The acoustic information is not affected in its tonal quality when recorded by the microphone. This characteristic is achieved without resorting to corrective resonance effects. Therefore, the microphone maintains an excellent impulse response reproducing all transient phenomena of music and speech without coloration. Electrical featuresThe letters TLM stand for "transformerless microphone." With TLM technology the usual output transformer is replaced by an electronic circuit. As with traditional transformers, it ensures good common mode rejection, and prevents RF interference, that may influence the balanced audio signal. Compared to other microphones the self noise level of the TLM 193 is considerably reduced. As it is capable of handling sound pressure levels up to 140dB without distortion, the TLM 193 provides a dynamic range of 130dB, according to DIN/IEC 651.Operational safetyAll exposed surfaces of the microphone capsule, including the diaphragms, are at ground potential. This technology makes them highly immune to electrical and atmospheric interference and contamination through microscopic dust particles. The capsule is elastically mounted to avoid any structure-borne noise that could interfere with its operation. The frequency response of the TLM 193 amplifier is linear down to 20Hz. Even very low bass signals are reproduced without coloration. This implies that the microphone becomes more sensitive to subsonic frequencies, from structure-borne noise or pop-and-wind noise. To avoid any LF interference, we recommend using the EA-1 elastic suspension mount and a windscreen or pop filter.Requires phantom power.Large diaphragm cardioid microphonePressure-gradient transducerTransformerless circuitryExtremely low noise: 10dB (A)Includes swivel mountHigh-quality professional equipment for mid-size budgetsRecommended uses:Close miking of instruments with high sound-pressure levelsAnnouncer's mic for broadcasting/dubbingHome recording and project studiosVocalist recording Spot mic forWind instrumentsStringsPercussionGuitar amps |

Calculus cardioid question help?
When recording live performances, sound engineers often use a microphone with a cardioid pickup
pattern because it suppresses noise from the audience. Suppose the microphone is placed 4 m from the front of the stage (as shown in the figure) and the boundary of the optimal pickup region is given by the cardioid
r = 8+8sinΘ , where r is measured in meters and the microphone is at the pole. The musicians want to know the area they will have on stage within the optimal pickup range of the microphone. Answer their question.

*******IMPORTANT ********* I am having trouble with finding the bounds for Θ ( and no it is not 0 and 2π). My prof told me I had to use the quadratic formula but i do not know how. you do not have to give a full solution, just the bounds for Θ.
thank you in advance
8+8sin(Θ) makes a complete revolution from 0 to 2π, so the bounds are actually from 0 to 2π. If you don't believe me try graphing the polar curve on the calculator using those bounds.
