{"product_id":"heil-sound-pr-31-bw-376766","title":"PR 31 BW","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Model Developed with Bob Workman for \"Field\" Recordings\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eHeil PR 31 BW\u003c\/strong\u003e was born from a collaboration with the legendary Nashville front-of-house engineer \u003cstrong\u003eBob Workman\u003c\/strong\u003e. The idea is simple: to offer a dynamic microphone capable of handling high levels while providing a strong presence in the midrange, where the definition and clarity of amplified instruments and drums are crucial. Within the Heil range, the PR 31 BW also stands out for its \u003cstrong\u003eshorter body\u003c\/strong\u003e, designed for quick and precise placement when every centimeter counts.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eIntended Uses and Musicians\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis microphone is aimed at guitarists, drummers, sound technicians, and home studio users seeking a reliable tool for close-miking. On a \u003cstrong\u003eguitar cabinet\u003c\/strong\u003e, it emphasizes the articulation and character of the amp while maintaining good isolation from other sources. On \u003cstrong\u003edrums\u003c\/strong\u003e, it excels at capturing detail in delicate positions: under cymbals, near a tom or snare, or as \u003cstrong\u003eoverheads\u003c\/strong\u003e when space is limited. It is also comfortable on \u003cstrong\u003emonitor cabinets\u003c\/strong\u003e, thanks to its ability to limit rear pickup and maintain a usable signal even in noisy environments.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eA Design Focused on Placement, Isolation, and Impact\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe PR 31 BW is a \u003cstrong\u003elarge-diaphragm dynamic microphone\u003c\/strong\u003e designed to deliver a focused and immediately usable sound. Its \u003cstrong\u003efrequency response from 40 to 18,000 Hz\u003c\/strong\u003e is paired with a deliberately emphasized midrange area, particularly relevant for instruments where presence, bite, and clear mix readability are sought.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eCardioid Directivity: An Ally Against Bleed\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eThanks to its \u003cstrong\u003ecardioid polar pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eeffective rear noise reduction\u003c\/strong\u003e, the PR 31 BW helps isolate the targeted source. The result: less bleed from other kit elements, fewer stage leaks, and a sound that is easier to process (EQ, gating, compression) without bringing up unwanted elements.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eShort Format: More Freedom Near Cymbals and Drums\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith a \u003cstrong\u003elength of 10.8 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e, this mic fits where longer models become cumbersome: between stands, near hoops, under a ride or hi-hat, or in a cramped booth. This compact size also facilitates maintaining proper mic angles to finely adjust the balance between attack, body, and ambiance.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eHigh Level Handling for Powerful Sources\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe PR 31 BW can handle a \u003cstrong\u003emaximum SPL of 146 dB\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it particularly reliable on very loud sources. Whether it's a driven amp, a snappy snare, or a hard-hit tom, you maintain a stable capture without fear of saturation due to acoustic pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response -
