Architects’ and Engineers’ Specification
The microphone shall be a ASTATIC 901R. The microphone shall be a miniature
electret boundary microphone. The frequency response will be 100 - 20kHz.
The microphone shall contain in itegral 80Hz / 12dB / oct hi-pass filter to
remove unwanted low frequency energy. The microphone shall have a cardioid
polar pattern in the horizontal plane.
The sensitivity of the 901R shall be -33 dB (22mV) @ 1 Pa. The microphone
shall have a miniature 3 pin connector and be supplied with a 30 foot cable that
has a mating connector on one end and a professional 3 pin XLR type connector
on the other end. The microphone shall operate from standard P12, P24 and P48
phantom power with a current consumption of less than 3 mA.
The dimensions of the microphone shall be 4-9/32" (109mm) long, 3" (76mm)
wide, and 25/32" (20mm) high. The weight shall be 6.7 oz. (190 grams) not
including the cable. The microphone shall have a durable urethane painted
finish. The 901R shall be black with a black cable.
The ASTATIC Model 901R is specified.
User Techniques and Applications
The 901R should be used on a large flat surface located preferably in the center
positioned with the front of the microphone facing the sound source.
The surface can be a part of the structure such as a wall or ceiling, or any flat
object such as a table with equally good results. Best results will be obtained
from larger smooth surfaces of at least 4'x4' with no obstructions. Smaller
surfaces will reduce low frequency sensitivity.
