The Earthworks SR3314 stainless steel cardioid wireless microphone capsule is a game - changer. It's designed to fit any 3 - ring wireless microphone base, allowing you to bring the most responsive wireless capsule to your favorite wireless platform. With minimal proximity effect, it captures natural, open, and rich - sounding vocals. Enjoy studio - level control with unparalleled off - axis sound rejection, which helps reduce bleed and feedback. Whether you're doing an intimate live stream or a local gig, it gives you the flexibility to move on stage while sounding as if you're using a wired handheld microphone. Faster soundchecks are possible thanks to its clean impulse response and a textbook cardioid pattern, leading to better monitor mixes. Technical specs include a frequency response from 20Hz - 30kHz, a cardioid polar pattern, a sensitivity of 6.5 mV/Pa (-43.7 dBV/Pa), power requirements of 3V to 6V (2.1 mA @ 5V), less than 3% THD distortion, a peak acoustic input of 133dB SPL @ 6V, and more. It's compatible with many wireless systems like SHURE (ULX - D, QLX - D, *Axient), AUDIO - TECHNICA (3000, 5000, 6000 Series), LECTROSONICS (HH, HHa), and LINE 6 (V75, V55). *Note: With Shure Axient AD2 and ADX2 handheld transmitters, it may take a bit over 3 seconds to warm up, so mute the channel during this time to avoid distortion or noise.
Using the Earthworks SR3314 microphone capsule is a breeze. First, make sure your wireless microphone base has a 3 - ring connector as this capsule is designed for it. Attach the capsule securely to the base. When you turn on the transmitter, if you're using a Shure Axient AD2 or ADX2 handheld transmitter, wait a bit over 3 seconds for it to warm up. During this time, keep the channel muted to prevent any unwanted noise or distortion. Whether you're performing on stage or doing a live stream, you can move around freely as it gives you that wired - like sound quality. To maintain it, keep it clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the capsule. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you notice any issues with the sound, check the power supply to ensure it's within the 3V - 6V range. That's all you need to know to get the best out of your Earthworks SR3314 microphone capsule.
