1. Selecting Polar Patterns

The Creative Live! Mic M3 features two polar patterns: Cardioid and Omni. Use the polar pattern control knob on the microphone to switch between them.

• کارڈیڈ پیٹرن: This is a front-focused mode, ideal for single-person recordings, streaming, or voiceovers. It primarily captures sound directly in front of the microphone, reducing background noise.
• Omni Pattern: This all-angle mode captures sound equally from all directions. It is suitable for conference calls, multi-person podcasts, or capturing ambient sounds.
