Full technical specifications for the Deity S-Mic 3 shotgun condenser microphone, including its frequency response, super-cardioid polar pattern, and complete performance parameters. All data is measured by the Deity audio laboratory and is subject to the actual product.
Frequency Response
The S-Mic 3 delivers a smooth, broadcast-friendly response across its 50 Hz to 20 kHz range (measured at 0dB ≤ 25mV/Pa, or -32dBV).
Polar Pattern
The S-Mic 3 uses a super-cardioid polar pattern for tight, on-axis directionality that rejects off-axis noise. The chart below plots the pattern at 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz, 8000 Hz, and 16000 Hz.
