The CX2 switches between, or operates simultaneously as an omnidirectional and directional microphone ready to address a host of audio scenarios. Handle unexpected feedback in live sound applications by switching from the omni to the directional mic for an instant solution. While the omni delivers an excellent live audio signal, the directional mic simultaneously optimizes it for a clean recording or broadcasting feed. This headset mic is available in different colors and connectors.
The CX2 headset microphone has a patented design that supports audio feeds in both omni and directional pickup patterns—simultaneously. The elements are offset creating a seamless appearance of a single microphone. There's no unnecessary bulk or doubling up on cables. The mic cable splits approximately nine inches above connection to the body-packs to allow ample room for separation of two transmitters. Headset can be adjusted to be worn over either the left or right ear.
