Cardiod


Hyper Cardiod


Super Cardiod


They call them cardiods because a standard cardiod kinda looks like an upside down heart (not really) hence "card" like cardiovascular. Pick up patterns effect tonality as well as pickup, basically, the more directional, the less ability to accurately depict the lower end. In theory. Anyone else?
