Earthworks FMR500 19 inch Cardioid Podium Microphone with Rigid Center

The Earthworks FMR500 is a 19-inch cardioid podium microphone with a rigid center. It features Earthworks' patented technologies in the FlexMic Series. This ensures high speech intelligibility and a uniform off-axis response. Whether the speaker is in front or at the sides, the sound quality remains top-notch, with no loss. The smooth off-axis response also offers more gain before feedback. With a max acoustic input of 145dB SPL, it's nearly impossible to overload. It has high rejection of rear sounds, no handling noise, and incredible RFI rejection. Ideal for public speaking venues like lecture halls, churches, and theaters, this microphone has many versatile features.

Using the Earthworks FMR500 is easy. First, make sure it's connected to a 48V phantom power source with a 10mA current. Place it on the podium, and the speaker can talk above, below, or to either side for clear sound. Remember, it can handle high sound pressure, but don't subject it to extreme noise. To maintain it, keep it clean by gently wiping it with a soft cloth. Avoid dropping or hitting it, as this could affect its performance. Also, store it in a dry place when not in use.
