The Heil Sound PR30 is a uniquely designed dynamic microphone, in what looks like the casing of a condenser microphone.<span> </span>I’m not 100% sure exactly what the technology is inside of the mic, but it is some sort of a modified version of a dynamic mic as far as I know.<span> </span>The mic does have a standard cardioid pick up pattern, but doesn’t have any features in terms of a pad or a high pass filter or anything like that.<span> </span>I’ve only got experience with the PR30 in the recording studio, but the microphone is designed for both use in the studio as well as for broadcast and voice over applications.

OVERALL OPINION

From what I assume is because of the unique design, the Heil Sound PR30 does sound a bit differently than a standard dynamic mic, as it has a cleaner sound quality than what I would expect from a traditional dynamic microphone.<span> </span>I’ve only used the mic for recording vocals, which from what I have been told is the best application for the mic.<span> </span>While I don’t have anything to compare it to, I definitely got a clean and accurate sound from the PR30 when I used it.<span> </span>I would imagine that the mic does have a bit of versatility, as to me a clean sounding mic is in general a clean sounding microphone.<span> </span>The price of the Heil Sound PR30 is certainly the main attraction here, as it is most likely in the price range for anyone looking for a microphone.<span> </span>I’d encourage those interested in the Heil Sound PR30 to try it out before hand to see if it is for you, but it is certainly a microphone worth checking out if you’re in the market for a very good sounding dynamic microphone that isn’t exactly in a traditional form…
