It will work with condenser microphones as well as dynamic microphones.

The Optogate PB-05 M will reduce gain by -42 db.

the Optogate PB-05 D will reduce gain by -16db.

 

We do offer the Optogate PB-07 which will work the same gain reduction as the M . This unit has the proximity sensors on a different location. You would mount this unit onto a mic stand to face the body of a vocalist or drummer or music director.
