It is a PZM microphone type (Pressure Zone Microphone)
Only sold on thomann (www.thomann.de (http://www.thomann.de)), like all products in the *** The T. (T. Bone for microphones)

On the walls, all forms of pressure are at their maximum level (due to the condition of zero particle velocity on the walls + Euler equation), allowing to finally have the presence of all waves, the quelquesoit frequency, without the effects of nodes and abdomen found in the room.

This type of microphone is used for:
- Environments (glued to the wall) to capture the reverb
- In the bass drums sound great for snapping (widely used in metal)
- On the pianos live (for aesthetics if you do not want to see the microphones, or if there are too many repisse)
- For conferences also apparently (never tried it, I'm not in event)

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using for over a year

I like its price (40 €.), But explained:
- It saturates very quickly
- A lot of background noise

Honestly, I bought it to see what the technology could give PZM which greatly aroused my curiosity.
Verdict = I like technology, but this mic is not great.

The breath is very annoying to catch his mood.
Saturation prevents its use on GC.

Now I know I want a PZM, I will point me to a different product though.
