Product Detail
The Shure MX418SE/C 18-inch cardioid gooseneck microphone with a switch is a top - notch audio solution for diverse settings. Ideal for places of worship, courtrooms, and conference centers, it precisely captures every word, offering outstanding audio clarity. Its fully adjustable gooseneck allows speakers to find the best position for excellent sound pickup. With a wide dynamic range and frequency response, it accurately reproduces sound across the audio spectrum, making it perfect for critical listening situations.
This microphone belongs to the sturdy Microflex Standard range and has interchangeable condenser cartridges. These easily - replaceable cartridges come in different polar patterns like cardioid, supercardioid, and omnidirectional, suitable for various sound environments. High sensitivity, a balanced transformerless output, and great immunity to electromagnetic hum and RF interference guarantee a clean audio signal even over long cables. The in - line preamp and 10 - foot side - exit cable make it very convenient for professional use.
Designed for long - lasting use and flexibility, the MX418SE/C features a locking flange mount, shock mount, and a snap - fit foam windscreen. The locking flange mount firmly secures the mic to lecterns, pulpits, or conference tables. The shock mount isolates over 20 dB of surface vibration noise, preventing disruptions during important talks. It consistently delivers high - quality sound, ensuring your voice is heard clearly.
Using the Shure MX418SE/C is easy. First, secure the microphone to a lectern, pulpit, or conference table using the locking flange mount. Then, connect the 10 - foot side - exit cable to your audio system and make sure the phantom power (11 - 52 Vdc, 8.0 mA) is provided. You can adjust the gooseneck to the best position for sound pickup according to your needs.
When using it, try to avoid placing it in areas with strong electromagnetic or RF interference to maintain a clear audio signal. Also, be aware of surface vibrations that could cause noise; the shock mount helps, but keeping the setup stable is still important.
For maintenance, regularly check the interchangeable cartridges. If they are dirty, gently clean them with a soft brush. The snap - fit foam windscreen can be removed and washed if it gets dirty. Keep the microphone in a dry and clean place when not in use to ensure its long - term performance.
