Notes: Scope judgment call: microphones are not in the task brief's explicit example category list (preamps/DI/headphone/phantom/mixers/EQ/interfaces/splitters), but device_class enum supports 'Microphone' and these are current pro-audio studio hardware from ART, not consumer/hi-fi or accessories -- included as an in-scope judgment call, flag for reviewer. phantom_power=true reflects that this mic REQUIRES external 48V phantom power to operate (FET condenser capsule electronics), it does not supply power. powered field left blank: mic is phantom-powered via the XLR/mixer/interface rather than having its own independent 'powered' status; judgment call to leave powered='' and rely on phantom_power field instead, flag for reviewer. S/N ratio 78dB, noise floor 16dB A (from page, not in requested fields). price_usd $199.99 from Sweetwater.com (listed as special-order item).
