M-Audio Pulsar II Overview

The M-Audio Pulsar II is a medium-diaphragm instrument microphone that delivers significant improvements over the original Pulsar. Redesigned by veteran engineers result in a host of added features that include a -10dB Pad, low-cut filter switch and much more. The Pulsar II is designed for instrument capturing in recording and sound-reinforcement applications and boasts a wide, linear frequency response.

Class-A FET output electronics provide transparent signal reproduction and low noise floor. The condenser element features a cardioid polar pattern which is effective in minimizing noise at the off-axis sections of the microphone. The result suppresses noise and feed-back when using near monitors or additional instruments. The Pulsar II requires external +48V phantom power and is more than suitable for capturing, drums, percussion, guitar, piano, brass and more.

Switchable -10dB Pad
The Pulsar II features a -10dB pad switch which maximizes headroom when capturing transient (peaking) audio signals.
Low Frequency Roll-Off
A low-frequency roll-off switch minimizes noise at 80Hz (12dB/octave).
Top-Address Cardioid Pattern
The Pulsar II features a top-address, front-firing capsule and cardioid polar pattern. The combination achieves a high level of side audio rejection, providing high suppression of feedback and noise.
Class-A FET Output Stage
The output stage features Class-A FET electronics which result in high output gain and low noise floor.
Wide Frequency Response
A wide linear frequency response allows accurate signal reproduction of a vast variety of signal sources.
