Rycote BD-10 Bidirectional Condenser Microphone

Rycote BD-10 Overview

The Rycote BD-10 is a bidirectional (figure-8) condenser microphone designed mainly for M/S stereo and ambient recording as well as dual dialog. Thanks to a virtually flat frequency response, extremely low self noise, RF shielding, and professional built quality, it captures the full range and depth of your audio with a crisp, detailed sound, and a touch of warmth.

Low Self Noise

• Rycote microphones can claim one of the lowest self-noise in the market (-8.5 dB) thanks to the high-quality capsule and preamp that positively affect the inherent electronic noise or hiss the mics usually produce.
• This low self-noise allows professionals to catch a cleaner and more accurate recordings when recording quiet sounds or working in environments where high-sensitivity is required.

RF Shielding

• Extremely efficient RF Shielding is designed into the electronics to make the microphone immune to wireless-transmitter and walkie talkies interference.

Non-Reflective Coating

• The black, matte non-reflective coating is a must have for professional location-sound microphones when lighting on the mic surface could glare and distract talents. This non-reflective coating allows boom ops to move freely, especially when in proximity to the talent.

Gold Plated Connection

• The XLR connector is gold-plated to prevent corrosion in high-humidity environments or applications with frequent thermal cycling or exposure to corrosive salts or acids. This benefits in the mic s longevity rather than in audio quality.

Durable Materials

• The mic s extremely precise capsule design is made of machined aluminum and first-class electronics to ensure the best possible acoustic performance. All components are tested for durability, moisture, and humidity.

One Sonic Signature

• All Rycote microphones are built using the same capsule and preamp design. This gives each mic a tonal and sonic signature that makes them cut together seamlessly. This allows sound engineers to benefit from a predictable tonal response to the same voice or sound source, resulting in an easier and faster mix& match postproduction workflow.
