4.2 Polar Patterns

The Wavo POD offers two selectable polar patterns to optimize audio capture for different scenarios:

• ຮູບແບບ Cardioid: This pattern picks up sound primarily from the front of the microphone, making it ideal for single-person recordings like solo podcasts, streaming, or voice-overs, as it helps to reject unwanted background noise.
• Omnidirectional Pattern: This pattern picks up sound equally from all directions around the microphone. It is best suited for capturing multiple voices or ambient sounds, such as group discussions, interviews, or recording environmental audio.

To switch between patterns, press the 'PATTERN' button located below the multi-function knob. An indicator light will show the currently selected pattern.
