ABSTRACT:
Three microphone units of first order sound pressure gradient unidirectional type are disposed in a casing having front and rear portions at both sides in such a manner that the center axes of the microphone units are aligned on the same axis. Two among the three microphone units are arranged to face the front portion of the casing, and remaining one microphone unit is arranged to face the rear portion of the casing. The output signals of the three microphone units are combined at a variable ratio so that the directivity of the microphone system can widely vary from nondirectivity via first order sound pressure gradient unidirectivity to second order sound pressure gradient unidirectivity. The output signals of two microphone units used for obtaining second order sound pressure gradient unidirectivity may be respectively applied to high pass filters before being combined, and the combined signal is fed to an equalizer. If an equalizer having modified frequency characteristic is employed, such high pass filters may be omitted.
