Why is there almost always a "presence" boost around 10khz and 20khz on condenser microphones (cardioid pattern)?
I have been looking at the polar patterns of quite a few mics:
Studio projects c1
mxl 909
mxl 990
Neumann TLM 49
Shure KSM 44 (cardiod pattern)
Audio Technica 4040 (actually had 2 points where a boost happened 7k and 12k)
Just wondering why this is why is this desireable?
