Beyerdynamic MCE 494 Cardioid Condenser Portable Microphone

MCE 494 Cardioid Condenser Portable Microphone description:

The MCE 494 is a condenser microphone intended for direct connection to notebooks, mobile DAT and MD recorders in teleconferencing, speech recognition and interviewing applications. The microphone is powered from the microphone input of the connected device i.e. plug in power. Due to its cardioid polar pattern, the MCE 494 has high-gainbefore feedback (PC loudspeaker ) and rejects background sounds such as drive noise. The wide frequency response gives clear and precise voice reproduction with high intelligibility.
