    Doug Ford, former head designer from Rode Microphones continues with Part 2 of the microphone technology series by explaining the construction of noise cancelling Figure 8, cardioid, and hyper cardioid microphones. Also, how the polar patterns and responses relate to the physical construction, and how the frequency response is affected.
    Proximity boost effect,
    Microphone calibration is also discussed using a home made artificial voice speaker box.
    And practical considerations about foldback wedges used in stage performances and how to avoid feedback using proper microphone technique.
