Understanding the PDM35's characteristics will help you achieve the best sound capture.
3.1 کارڈیوڈ پولر پیٹرن
The PDM35 features a cardioid polar pattern, which means it is most sensitive to sound coming from the front and rejects sound from the sides and rear. This is ideal for isolating specific instruments like cymbals or percussion, minimizing background noise and bleed from other sound sources.

3.3 آلے کی جگہ کا تعین
Position the PDM35 microphone strategically to capture the desired sound. For hi-hats and cymbals, aim the microphone towards the edge or bell depending on the desired tone. For percussion, experiment with distance and angle to capture the instrument's full character. For string instruments, placement near the soundboard or bridge can yield excellent results.
