The C (cardioid) and H (hypercardioid) end caps
modify your Earset’s directionality. The Earset should
always have a protective cap in place to keep
sweat, makeup and other foreign material out of the
microphone.
The hypercardioid cap provides the best isolation
from all directions, with a null towards the floor where
“wedge” monitors are often placed. The hypercardioid
is slightly more sensitive to air movement and
handling noise and should always be used with a
windscreen.
The cardioid cap is slightly less directional, with a
null roughly towards the performer’s back. It’s most
useful for tradeshow presenters or others who have a
monitor speaker over their shoulders or behind them.
