The Heil Sound PR-30 is a professional dynamic microphone designed for applications that require a smooth, flat output from a wide frequency response (40Hz-18kHz). Whether it's commercial broadcast, studio recording, or live sound reinforcement, the PR-30 mic can handle it. A specially designed magnet structure and large, aluminum 1-1/2" low-mass voice coil assembly make this possible. In addition to a carefully wound and placed humbucking coil, the components of the PR-30 are engineered to minimize external noise and provide pure articulation. A unique dual pop screen design ensures that breath blasts never hit the diaphragm directly. The result of all this is a perfect representation of the voice that is virtually unpolluted by external noise.

  • Large 1-1/2" aluminum diaphragm
  • Wide frequency response
  • End fire, cardioid pattern

Lifesaving Vocal Mic
Posted by J. Greene from White Plains, N.Y. on Sep 21, 2007
Experience w/product: I own it
Reviewer's Background: home recordist
Reviewer's Play Style: eclectic guitar based
Recording vocals had for me also become seemingly hopeless and nightmarish as a result of the presence of baffling distortion that was only audible at low playback levels and not while recording. My condenser mic (Rode NT1-A)was overdriving my preamp (Presonus Blue Tube Dual Path)? It seems so, but it was the Heil PR-30, not the Shure SM7B, that I turned to and that seems to have saved my sorry home-recording you-know-what. (Why the PR-30 and not the SM7B?: Aside from being cheaper, the PR-30 has a wider, flatter frequency response, judging from the specs.) When I sang what's left of my heart out into the PR-30 and played it back, not only was the distortion conspicuously absent if not completely eliminated, the vocal track (never mind my voice) sounded brilliant. Only one, small, not-even-a-complaint: this mic seems very sensitive to vibration through the stand using the supplied stand adaptor.

Heil PR30
Posted by John Aspromonte from Chicago on Jun 7, 2007

Reviewer's Play Style: All types acoustic and electric
This is a smooth mic, if you are a musician who grew up in live situations and prefer a dynamic microphone which performs at the quality level of a Condenser or Ribbon. This is a good choice. You can mike your bass drum, Stand up bass, Cello, Acoustic guitar or vocals with quality results. I have an assortment of vintage and new microphones and I am glad I got this mic. The only thing I do not like about it is that it does not come with a case or mic bag. I brought this up to Bob Heil (“I think a mic for this price should come with a case”). Apparently it fell upon deaf ears. If it were not for the fact that I love this mike I would have returned it.

Amazing Mic
Posted by Silvertung from Maryland on Mar 29, 2007
Experience w/product: I own it
Reviewer's Background: Pro
Reviewer's Play Style: Hard Rock
I was in the market for a new mic to go with my Krank Revolution 1, and I wanted to get something that could accuratley reproduce the awesome tone of my amp live as well as in the studio. I tried 15 different mics from the good old SM57 and Sennheiser E609 to a few higher dollar condensors that could handle live spl. levels. The PR30 flat out destroyed everything else I put it up against. I think this is the best mic out there for guitar amps. I bought a SKB hard case for it to keep it nice and safe between performances. It is one of my favorite peices of gear now. I cherish it. Don't hesitate to go out and get one.

Heil knows what sounds good

I have owned the PR-30, PR-20, and PR-40 for about a year now and they are all exceptional dynamic Mics. Mr. Heil takes a novel approach to designing his mics. He listens! I have used the PR-30 in the studio on snare, toms, and guitar cabs with excellent results. I have also used it for sax at our live gigs and won't ever go back to a 57. Thanks Bob!
