Zoom ZDM-1 Dynamic Microphone
Featuring a large-diaphragm dynamic mic capsule, the ZDM-1 captures your voice with smooth broadcast
character. With its high SPL (Sound Pressure Level) handling and an internal shock mount, you’ll always
be heard loud and clear.
It is tuned to deliver a robust vocal tone with smooth highs and tight lows, ideal for podcasters, radio
show announcers, rappers, and singers. The large-diaphragm dynamic capsule utilizes a super-cardioid
pickup pattern to effectively reduce ambient sound such as room noise at the sides of the mic. To
isolate the pickup element from handling noise, vibrations, and rumble, the ZDM-1 employs an integrated
shock-absorbing mechanism. The ZDM-1's integral humbucking circuit improves the signal-to-noise ratio by
inhibiting electromagnetic interference from common sources such as wireless devices, power lines,
computer displays, and more.
The all-metal body and grille afford ruggedness and durability for reliable use session after session.
The ZDM-1 includes a pivoting mic stand mount for easy positioning and a custom windscreen for
attenuation of plosives and breath noise.

while the closed-back design enhances acoustic isolation.

monitoring for vocal sessions and quick signal checks.
