The Heil Heritage represents completely new dynamic microphone technology designed for a wide range of professional applications such as sophisticated recording, live sound, and commercial broadcast. Its smooth, wide frequency range sounds like a ribbon but can withstand large amounts of SPL. Outperforming the tired, 30 year old technology of the industry, the large diameter of the Heritage's dynamic element produces an outstanding upper mid range that makes it an excellent choice for reproducing the human voice.
Since 1982, Heil Sound has been the leading manufacturer of communications microphones and has a paramount understanding of phasing. When properly applied, this knowledge creates outstanding cardioid patterns with unbelievable rear rejection that removes unwanted sounds that try to enter from the off axis rear. The pattern control of the Heil Heritage is outstanding. This exceptional performance is achieved by using the ideal combination of materials for the large low mass diaphragm and a special mixture of neodymium, iron, and boron that gives the Heritage the strongest magnet structure available. These features allow the microphone to achieve magnificent dynamic range. A unique foam windscreen was molded to fit the inside of the microphone shell, thus offering a breath blast filter and at the same time providing the screen for the microphone, which allows the user to talk closely to the microphone with little worry of pops or excessive sibilance. The large diameter dynamic element is mounted in a unique Sorbothane c shock mount atop a non-resonant fixture, decoupling the element from the massive steel body. The new technology of the Heil Heritage has redefined the dynamic microphone with superior wide frequency response, the lowest presence of noise in the industry, flawless design, and elite quality expected by an innovator and leader in the field
