help Heil PR 30 FAQ
Do I speak into the side or the end of the Heil PR 30?
Speak into the end. The PR 30 is an end-address dynamic microphone, so talking into its side produces a weak and dull recording.
Does the Heil PR 30 need phantom power?
No. It is a passive dynamic microphone and does not require 48-volt phantom power, though it does need a microphone preamp with sufficient clean gain.
Can the PR 30 record guitar cabinets and drums?
Yes. Heil rates it for sound-pressure levels up to 146 dB and specifically positions it for guitar cabinets, drums, vocals, and broadcast work.
How is the PR 30 different from the Heil PR 40?
The PR 30 emphasizes a clear, present midrange and is frequently used on instruments as well as speech. The PR 40 extends further into the low frequencies and is especially associated with close broadcast vocals.
