Electro Voice PL37

The PL37 is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone designed to deliver crisp, detailed capture of drum overheads, hi-hats, and acoustic stringed instruments. With a tight cardioid polar pattern, it provides focused pickup and excellent isolation, making it ideal for both stage and studio environments.

Voiced to highlight percussive transients and high-frequency detail, the PL37 offers the precision needed for cymbal work and nuanced instrument tones. Its Memraflex grille ensures durability, and the die-cast zinc construction provides lasting reliability.
