User's Manual

The ART D7 large diaphragm dynamic microphone is an essential addition to any serious
recording or live sound engineer’s microphone toolkit. Designed originally for broadcast
applications, the D7 delivers an exceptionally smooth, wide flat frequency response with
predictable proximity effect making it perfect for high impact vocal applications.
The wide diaphragm design and the microphone’
s inherent ability to handle high SPL makes
it ideal for use on bass drums, floor toms, in front of bass amplifiers, guitar amplifiers as
well as what could be the ideal microphone for rock vocals.
Tone Shaping
Integrated high Pass Filter (Low Frequency Roll Off) switch at 100Hz reduces unnecessary
low end 'boominess' and low frequency interference when engaged. This is particularly
effective for vocal applications where unnecessary low frequency audio clutters the signal
and reduces clarity and presence.
The midrange frequency boost switch is most often used on vocal tracks where additional
presence and clarity is required. This will add clarity in close miking applications where the
proximity effect may clutter speech. The mid boost can be extremely effective the D7 is used
on bass guitar or high volume guitar amplifiers, or used on bass drums where maximum
tone, clarity and precise attack characteristics are required.
Included
The included heavy-duty shock-mount suspension virtually eliminates vibration and
handling noise, while at the same time safely securing the microphone in any position
needed during use.
