Audio-Technica PRO49QL

The PRO 49QL is a ProPoint cardioid condenser quick-mount gooseneck microphone that adds an LED status ring for clear on-air indication. The illuminated ring shows talkers and the room when a channel is live or muted, which is invaluable in courtrooms and council chambers.

Its quick-mount base plugs straight into a panel- or desk-mounted connector for a fast, clean install. The gooseneck lets a presenter aim the cardioid capsule precisely at the source. The cardioid pattern favors the talker and rejects surrounding noise. It connects over a standard XLR output and suits any installed system that benefits from visible mute status.
