Audio Technica U857AL

Audio Technica U857AL
G&G Price: $235
Cardioid Condenser Adapter-mount Gooseneck Microphone.
16.58″ length
Includes windscreen and A-Mount flange,
power module and
A-Mount cable pass-through adapter

Description:

Engineered for versatile positioning and extremely flexible performance in boardroom, school, government, house-of-worship and other installed applications, the U857AL features a small-diameter gooseneck with virtually no “memory.” Its ultra-flexible, robust design permits easy adjustment into desired shape while resisting inadvertent repositioning. This cardioid condenser gooseneck microphone direct mounts to any 5/8"-27 stand; it is 16.58" long. Equipped with UniGuard™ innovations that offer unsurpassed immunity from radio frequency interference, the U857AL accepts interchangeable elements, available in cardioid, hypercardioid, omnidirectional and UniLine™ line cardioid polar patterns. The battery- or phantom-powered microphone also offers an 80 Hz low-cut UniSteep® filter that reduces pickup of low-frequency ambient noise.

Features:

Designed for high-quality sound reinforcement, professional recording and broadcasting
Superior off-axis rejection for maximum gain before feedback
UniGuard™ RFI-shielding technology offers outstanding rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI)
Easy-to-adjust, rugged, small-diameter, alternating gooseneck with virtually no “memory” permits quick positioning into desired shape
UniSteep® filter provides a steep low-frequency attenuation to improve sound pickup without affecting voice quality
Accepts interchangeable elements to permit angle of acceptance from 90° to 360°
Two-stage foam windscreen yields dramatically improved resistance to P-pops and other breath blasts
Direct mounts to any 5/8"-27 stand, or to included threaded mounting flange
Operates on battery or phantom power
