The Electro-Voice RE11 is a Variable-D dynamic supercardioid microphone created specially for professional applications requiring a sharply con­trolled supercardioid directional pattern. It is much like the Electro-Voice RE16, in that it employs a blast filter which is an integral part of the microphone. The blast filter allows close-up, handheld use without P-popping and also allows outdoor use without excessive wind noise. Though the RE11 is similar to the RE16, it meets requirements where there is less need for precise unit-to-unit matching.
