Heil Sound PR 22 Cardioid Dynamic Utility Microphone

Heil calls the PR 22 a dynamic utility microphone, and that is an accurate description of the job it does: one cardioid dynamic that covers vocals, snare and toms, guitar cabinets, and general recording without needing to be babied. Rear rejection is -30 dB at 180 degrees and max SPL is 145 dB, so it holds up in front of a loud source on a loud stage.

Response runs 50 Hz to 18 kHz with a 600 ohm balanced output at -55 dB output level, and no phantom power is required. The microphone weighs 14 oz and comes with a padded zipper carrying case, windscreen, and mic clip. Several finish and package options are stocked, listed above by part number.
