Yes, I see that from the measurement you report on your website but that isn't what your bullet point was and I still don't quite understand the need for an increase in response at 50Hz. I think you
Apologies for replying to myself but in case anybody else wants to know it would appear that a Primo EM-60 or EM-100 electret capsule is used which means that it is almost certainly omnidirectional.
I measured it using the parameters you show on your web page http://www.ronc.users.sonic.net/Frequency%20Response%20jpg.jpg which is entitled 'Orion II Frequency Response', and using the technique yo

They can be OK if used at very close spacing to the intended sound source; the reduced gain needed at the rig input can help reduce reflections, blower noise and unwanted vox action. This is workable
The mounting will mask high frequencies from the rear, giving it a degree of apparent directivity. The term uni-directional isn't really valid in a microphone context. A cardioid results from the sup
Seems some people have some issues and others do not. Is it possible to do a settings dump from the processor. This could be placed into a general file for others to see and compare. As complex as th
