The KR-3H capsule is a 1/2 inch design with a hypercardioid polar pattern. The measured frequency response is 40 Hz to 20,000 Hz. This capsule is recommended for recording situations were it is necessary to attenuate off-axis sounds, particularly in areas/situations susceptible to acoustic feedback. The KR-3H can be used for vocal dialogue, stringed or solo instruments, percussion and even overhead recording where off-axis rejection (and pulling the sound forward) is key to the desired effect. Its small size suits it for boom-mounted dialogue mic (Film/TV) applications and as an X-Y stereo pair for music or sound effects.
