The Reporter is an omnidirectional handheld microphone built for field interviews — its forgiving pickup pattern captures both interviewer and subject without repositioning the mic between speakers. The internally shockmounted dynamic capsule rejects handling and low-frequency noise, and an internal multi-layer mesh basket cuts plosives without needing an external windshield. Frequency response is tailored for speech with a boost through 4-10 kHz, and the die-cast, anti-glare matte-black body has an extra-long handle and a removable mic flag for logo display.
