Re: short pickup range options

Yes but that’s kind of different than having a physical distance limitation. I think most applications to accomplish what you may be trying to achieve use filters and gates.?
Like dynamic vocal mics on a stage use high pass filtering and sometimes a noise gate or another type of threshold to determine when to allow signal through, especially in loud reverberant spaces with loud heavy drums.?
certainly there are "less sensitive" microphones, though, right?
i suppose the most obvious example would be something like a piezo, where there would actually need to be direct contact with the element in order to produce a voltage.

In this case, the nature of the transducer (dynamic, electret or
condenser) does not make a difference. It's only the distance that matters.
Putting the mic as close as possible to the source increases the level
of desired sound, when parasitic sounds are identical, so it increases
the Wanted-Signal-to-Unwanted-Signal ratio.

Dynamic microphones have an undeserved reputation for being less
sensitive to ambiant sounds or feedback, when they only attenuate high
frequencies. Actually most condenser mics have a better directivity
control than dynamics.
