Element Type: Dynamic, Neodymium Magnet Structure
Frequency Response: 20 Hz - 10,000 Hz
Polar Pattern: Supercardioid
Sensitivity, Open Circuit Voltage, 1 kHz: 0.50 mV/Pa (-66 dBV)
Rated Impedance: 150 ohms
Designed for kick drum, low toms and low frequency instru-
ments, the PL33 delivers all the tight punch, transient snap,
and natural acoustic properties necessary for today’s demand-
ing sound requirements. With enhanced isolation via a tight
supercardioid polar pattern, coupled with application-oriented
frequency response voicing, the PL33 excels in performance
and value. Although the PL line is designed for professional live
sound applications, the PL33 (along with all PL drum mics) is
equally capable of handling the sonic requirements of record-
ing studio applications. Part# PRD000163000
Specialized microphones for the high SPL and transient environment of drums and percussion require a
unique set of capabilities, and designing and deploying world-class drum mics is by no means a small undertaking. Identifying and creating the
ideal sonic signature of each model requires extensive research and development drawn from a vast array of contributors. Theoretical proposi-
tions hypothesized in a laboratory vacuum would be of little use without testing each and every possibility in a variety of real-world live sound
environments. Stretching way outside of the laboratory box, we redefined our R&D team to include key stakeholders from all application stand-
points, ensuring a unique set of features consistent with world-class drum mics would be the result.
The new PL Series of drum mics was conceived and designed by EV’s world-class R&D team, consisting of microphone design engineers
who know exactly what goes into a world-class drum mic, front-of-house sound engineers who know exactly how the ideal drum mic
should perform, and professional performing drummers who know exactly when their kit is totally rockin’ the house.
The result? A unique lineup of world-class drum mics and kits that redefine sonic performance, durability, and value. Your drums will sound bet-
ter, with more power and natural tones in the system than you’ve ever heard before. Although denoted PL for Professional Live, PL Series drum
mics are designed to deliver excellent results in recording studio applications as well.
