Product Detail
The Point Source Audio CX2-8D-XLE-BR is an amazing cross-function headset microphone. It's brown and comes with an X-connector for Lectrosonics and other popular wireless systems. This mic is super flexible! You can switch it between omnidirectional and cardioid modes, either one at a time or simultaneously. This helps deal with feedback issues right away and gives you two recording options in a single microphone. The two mic elements have their own wire paths in one cable, which is a clean and easy alternative to messy cable setups. The cable splits about nine inches above the body-pack transmitters, giving you enough space to separate the transmitters. The package includes a cross-function element microphone, two X-connectors, a SLIDER1 mic clip, a cable clip, and a windscreen. Key features include combined omni and cardioid elements, a single cable with two wire paths splitting to two body packs, a max SPL of up to 136 dB, reversible and collapsible earhooks, it can be worn on either the left or right side, an unbreakable boom that can bend 360 degrees, a 1.2-meter cable length, compatibility with X-Connectors for all popular wireless systems such as Shure, Sennheiser and Lectrosonics, and it's available in beige, brown or black colors.
Using the Point Source Audio CX2-8D headset microphone is a breeze. First, choose which side you want to wear it on - it can go on the left or right. Then, adjust the earhook to fit your ear comfortably. You can even reverse or collapse the earhook as needed. Next, connect the cable to your body-pack transmitters. The cable splits about nine inches above the connection, so make sure there's enough space between the transmitters. Now, decide if you want to use the omnidirectional or cardioid mode. You can switch between them easily to suit your needs. For example, if you're in a noisy environment, the cardioid mode can focus on the sound in front of the mic. When using it, keep in mind that the max SPL is up to 136 dB, so don't expose it to extremely loud sounds for a long time. To maintain the microphone, clean it regularly with a soft cloth. Avoid getting it wet and store it in a dry place when not in use. And that's it! Enjoy using your new microphone for all your recording and broadcasting needs.
