General Description:  
Thank you for purchasing the Electro-Voice® PL24 (or PL24S  
switched version). This product is a professional-grade supercar-  
dioid dynamic microphone designed to capture the character of both  
voice and instrument in live sound applications. With its balanced  
frequency response, the PL24’s sonic performance is robust and  
articulate, and delivers all around vocal clarity in any live sound situ-  
ation. The enhanced isolation provided by its supercardioid polar  
pattern is an excellent defense against system feedback and cross-  
talk bleed emanating from other nearby sound sources. The result  
is higher gain before feedback and cleaner stage mixes. Although  
designed to be a vocal microphone for music and spoken word, the  
PL24 will also function well as an instrument or amplifier microphone  
where a dynamic element capsule would be desired.  
Technical Specifications:  
Element Type: Dynamic, Neodymium Magnet  
Structure  
Application Notes:  
Frequency Response: 80 Hz - 16,000 Hz  
Polar Pattern: Supercardioid  
As with most directional microphones, the low frequency response  
of the PL24 microphone varies with the distance from the sound  
source. Known as “proximity effect”, the bass response of the  
microphone increases as the working distance to the microphone is  
reduced. This “bass boost” is only audible when working at distances  
closer than 6 inches. Using this microphone at distances greater  
than 6 inches provides minimal coloration from proximity effect.  
Sensitivity, Open Circuit 2.2 mV/Pa (-53 dBV)  
Voltage, 1 kHz:  
Polarity: Positive pressure on diaphragm  
produces positive voltage on pin 2  
relative to pin 3  
Rated Impedance: 600 ohms  
Proximity effect can be used to your advantage when a thin voice  
is being recorded. As the vocalist decreases their working distance  
to the microphone, the low frequency content is enhanced. Close-  
up positioning of the microphone will also reduce the potential for  
feedback from the sound reinforcement system. When close-talked,  
the bass-boost provides an increase in overall microphone output  
level. The mixer gain may be proportionately reduced, resulting in  
a reduction of the system’s sensitivity to feedback caused by the  
sound entering the microphone from the loudspeakers.
