The biggest trick the Luminus has to offer is its amazing smooth clarity but how ?.  The luminus has A ZP m7 capsule that is designed to react like A omni capsule would but only records the source in the cardioide hart shape area. So while rejecting sound from the sides and back there is no uncontrolled proximity bump with the luminus that other normal cardiode microphones are usually known for. this results is An extremely balanced open recording and A fundamental start of shaping the perfect vocal.
