[QUOTE="Art Welter, post: 107332, member: 52"] Re: Microphone Transfer Function The podium which the goose neck is mounted to is a reflective surface, there are path length differences between the voice direct path and the reflected path. This causes a comb filter response (peaks and dips) as well as the difference in tonal response dependent on the cardioid pattern, as the reflected sound hits the mic from a different angle than the direct sound. The funky response really can't be cured with EQ, and reduces gain before feedback. If you can use a boom or longer goose neck to get the mic close to the speaker's mouth the podium reflections will be so far down in level they won't be a problem. Remember to put glasses and hats on the dummy head if the speakers wear them. [/QUOTE]
