Key Features
 
  
 Dynamic Capsule: The Procaster utilizes a dynamic transducer, which is less sensitive to ambient noise and ideal for untreated recording environments.
 
  
 Cardioid Polar Pattern: Its tight cardioid pattern focuses on sound directly in front of the microphone, minimizing pickup from the sides and rear, thus reducing background noise.
 
  
 Internal Pop Filter: An integrated pop filter helps control plosive sounds, reducing the need for an external pop shield.
 
  
 Internal Shock Mounting: The capsule is internally shock-mounted to minimize handling noise and vibrations. 
 
  
 All-Metal Construction: Built with a durable all-metal body, the Procaster is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use. 
 
  
 XLR Output: Equipped with a standard 3-pin XLR connector, it requires connection to an audio interface or mixer with appropriate gain.
 
  
 No Phantom Power Required: As a dynamic microphone, it does not require external power or phantom power
