A great way to compensate for the proximity bass effect of most directional microphones


Is an inductor (coil) in series with a variable resistor. (This is the new version of the Pleiades filter and may be inside an XLR female to male adaptor. The first version was just an inductor with only the resistance of the coil as the effective series resistance.)


This is then connected  in parallel or across the voice coil.


So a Pleiades filter was made with a relative low inductance inductor of about 52mH and a variable resistor. Very nice sound. See an older but recent euroelectron post.
