Heil Sound PR 22 Noise-Rejection Microphone $182 The Heil PR 22 represents completely redesigned dynamic microphone technology designed for a wide range of professional applications such as live sound, commercial broadcast, and sophisticated recording. The microphone's wide frequency range and outstanding low handling noise outperforms the tired, 30+ year old industry technology and can withstand huge amounts of SPL. The end result is a microphone that can answer the call to any application. For example, the gorgeous upper mid range makes the PR 22 among the best live vocal microphones, while its outstanding frequency response and superb dynamic range suit it perfectly for use with a snare drum.Since 1982, Heil Sound has been a leading manufacturer of communications microphones and has a paramount understanding of phasing. When properly applied, this knowledge creates outstanding cardioid patterns with unbelievable rear rejection that removes unwanted sounds that try to enter from the off axis rear. It's pattern control is outstanding. This exceptional performance is achieved by using the ideal combination of materials for the large low mass diaphragm and a special mixture of neodymium, iron, and boron that gives the PR 22 the strongest magnet structure available.In addition to the special magnet structure, the PR 22 microphone achieves its exceptional performance by using a large 1-1/8" low mass voice coil assembly with a very unique internal sorbothane suspension system that has been designed to reduce undesirable handling noise. Special attention has been paid to the phasing plug assembly with equally placed ports that sense audio from behind, entering them out of phase. Thus, it produces a very linear cardioid pattern and reduces the proximity effect while achieving perfect articulation. This new Heil element is usable in extreme high sound pressure levels and is immune to overload conditions making it perfect for vocal and live sound applications. |

Drawmer Ds201 Dual Noise Gate $725 The DS201 is a sophisticated dual channel noise gate incorporating a number of features pioneered by Drawmer, which are invaluable to the sound engineer, and not found on conventional noise gates. These features and its "user friendliness" have made it the "industry standard" throughout the world. Setting up noise gates can be tedious and unrewarding. For example, when attempting to separate a signal from unwanted noise or crosstalk that is relatively high in level, spurious triggering of the gate by unwanted components within the sound can be a serious problem. This can often be experienced in the studio when recording a drum kit. If a gate is used to clean up the snare drum sound it is quite likely that the nearby hi-hats will spill into the snare drum microphone and cause the gate to open. Increasing the threshold level may cure this problem, but then there is a very real danger that any quieter snare drum beats may not cause the gate to open at all and the performance can easily be ruined. The DRAWMER solution to this problem is the inclusion of two variable filters, one high-pass and one low-pass, which act upon the side-chain keying circuitry. By setting the output switch to key listen the user can hear the action of the filters and adjust them to reject high frequency spillage from the hi-hats. This now enables the gate to only open on the lower frequencies present in the snare drum. Drawmer pioneered the concept of frequency conscious gating, and the Drawmer DS201 was the first noise gate to include this feature. The very fast attack of the DS201 means that it can open in a matter of micro seconds, thus preserving the natural attack of whatever sound is being gated and the comprehensive envelope controls mean that the gain can be changed at whatever rate best suits the material being processed. With vocals for example, a fairly fast attack is needed so as not to clip the leading consonants but a slower release time will prevent the end of words being clipped off and will also fade out any noise gradually rather than cutting it off abruptly. This latter point is very important as the human ear is far more sensitive to rapidly changing noise levels than to a constant low level noise. Another important role played by the gate is in the reshaping of existing sounds. An example of this might involve a simple sampling delay line used to store a sound to be re-triggered later and added to a mix. A gate can be used to impart a slower attack or faster decay to the sound and careful setting of the decay envelope can effectively hide any noise present at the end of the sample. When using a sampler or drum machine the gate can be considered a triggered envelope shaper, and the wide range allowed by the envelope controls make the DS201 ideal for this application. The unit can be switched to accept a key input, which allows the gate to be triggered externally. An example of this would be to use a snare drum signal to open the gate on a separate a |

A Different Travelling Experience With Noise Cancelling Headphones
The nature of my day job calls for a good deal of travelling. There was once I had to transit from Dallas to Los Angeles for 3 hours before catching another international flight to Hong Kong (and back) in 2 days! Just for a crucial business seminar. Although I love the travelling, believe me, flying for 20 hours straight can really be quite draining. Especially if you usually take the economy class. The long hours. And not to mention the constant hissing of the aircraft engines. It just affects you sometimes.
I probably thought I would have to bear with the sound pollution on the flight. Pretty much as long as I'm required to travel. But a colleague's recommendation altered all that. He advocated getting a set of Bose noise cancelling headphones on flight. It cost a tidy sum but well, base on the level of the travel experience I enjoy now, it was definitely deserving of the price!
Noise Cancelling Headphones - What's That?
They are simply audio phones that use technology to reduce ambient noise through the use of active noise control. Using a mike and electronic circuitry, an anti-noise acoustic wave with a polarity opposite of the one hitting the microphone is produced. That eventually removes the noise within the confined volume of the earphone.
One issue is that an over the headphone works much more effectively than the in-ear smaller earpieces. That probably means, people who like to listen to the music while jogging or exercising may need to get a separate set of regular phones from the ones they bring onflight. But is it worth fussing over that? Definitely!
How It Aids Jetsetters Like You
From what I can see, the headphones not only allow me to enjoy a pleasant journey, I was also able to savour my favourite music onflight without contending with sound pollution. This is actually a very major concern, as I tend to combat the noise by raising the music's volume. I wasn't sure what was the repercussions of that on my hearing but since purchasing the noise cancelling headphones, my inclination to increase the volume had been greatly reduced.
Besides that, on certain flights which provide multimedia entertainment such as movies on demand or video games, I find myself easily engaged in the plot or exhilaration without the annoying hissing from the aircraft engine. As a matter of fact, the headphones was so good in reducing clatter that there were times when the flight attendent had to tap on my shoulder to get my attention. Ha!
Nowadays, if you ask me whether there's anything I couldn't leave home without, yes, you've guessed it right! Other than my luggage & travelling documents, it has to be my Bose noise cancelling headphones!
