Zoom ZDM-1 is a dynamic microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern, designed to deliver warm and rich broadcast-quality sound. Its high gain before feedback and SPL capability make it suitable for loud environments. The hum-bucking coil reduces interference, while the internal shock mount minimizes noise and vibrations. The all-metal construction ensures durability. It's ideal for vocals, instruments, and broadcasting.

Features
• Delivers a warm and rich broadcast sound
• Supercardioid polar pattern, high gain before feedback
• High SPL capability
• Hum-bucking coil to reduce interference
• The shock mount within the ZDM-1 also greatly reduces stage
noise and mechanical and environmental vibrations.
• The ZDM-1’s all-metal construction makes it very robust.
General Rules for Use
• For the best signal to noise ratio, the distance from the
microphone to the sound source should be as short as
possible.
• The sensitivity of a supercardioid microphone is highest on axis
and lowest at 120 to 135 degrees.
• To reduce crosstalk between microphones, a 1:3 guide line
should be followed: If the distance between microphone A to
the sound source A is “1”, then the distance between sound
source A and any other microphone should be more than 3
times.
