It is the stage layout of a band. They have two microphones.
I know it is "flat and..." I don't understand the other one. Please, help |

An ideal "flat" frequency response means that the microphone is equally sensitive to all frequencies. In this case, no frequencies would be exaggerated or reduced (the chart above would show a flat line), resulting in a more accurate representation of the original sound. We therefore say that a flat frequency response produces the purest audio.
In the real world a perfectly flat response is not possible and even the best "flat response" microphones have some deviation.
More importantly, it should be noted that a flat frequency response is not always the most desirable option. In many cases a tailored frequency response is more useful. For example, a response pattern designed to emphasise the frequencies in a human voice would be well suited to picking up speech in an environment with lots of low-frequency background noise.
The main thing is to avoid response patterns which emphasise the wrong frequencies. For example, a vocal mic is a poor choice for picking up the low frequencies of a bass drum.
