 Shure MX412SE/C 12-inch (30 cm) Gooseneck Condenser Microphone, Shock Mount, Flange Mount, 10-foot (3 m) Side-Exit Cable (or Bottom-Exit), Snap-Fit Foam Windscreen, In-Line Preamp, Cardioid.

Shure Microflex MX412SE/C microphones are miniature gooseneck-mounted electret condenser microphones designed for speech and vocal pickup. Their high sensitivity and broad frequency range make them suitable for recording, as well as sound reinforcement applications.

The MX412SE/C microphone can be screwed onto a mic stand or the supplied 5/8 inch 27-threaded flange. They can be easily changed from side-exit to bottom-exit to conceal the cable. All models include an in-line preamplifier and a 3 m (10 ft) cable. Each microphone is available with interchangeable cardioid, supercardioid, or omnidirectional cartridges.

Shure MX418D-C Gooseneck Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Microflex? Gooseneck microphones bring a whole new meaning to the word flexible
with their fully adjustable gooseneck. Designed for easy replacement and available in
cardioid, supercardioid and omnidirectional polar patterns, the interchangeable cartridges
offer wide frequency response and accurate sound reproduction for a wide variety of applications
such as houses of worship, courtrooms and conference centers. Plus, the condenser cartridges
fit every model in the Microflex product line for enhanced convenience and consistent sound.

Microflex Gooseneck microphones are available in four models with a variety of heights and mounting
styles to choose from. One model includes a silent mute switch with LED indicator, a Shure Microflex
exclusive. And every Microflex Gooseneck features high sensitivity and balanced, transformerless output
for maximum resistance to electromagnetic hum and RF interference, even over long cable runs.

• Cardioid polar pattern
• 10 m (33 ft.) cable
• 125° pickup angle
• Especially suited for choir recordings
• Integrated spring steel clamp for optimum alignment

The new CHM 99 Condenser Hanging Microphone provides both ease of use and a high level of functionality. There is hardly any more affordable and simpler solution for recording choirs at worship centers. Suspended from the ceiling or a beam, the hanging microphone is aligned and then fixed in the correct position. Now use the spring steel clamp to adjust the correct angle, and off you go!
The CHM 99 is available in white or black.

XY stereo recording

Using two CHM 99 hanging microphones in an XY configuration (coincident pair) is a good way to make stereo recordings, particularly of choirs. However, sound source locations are defined only by intensity differences. Adjusting the angle between the microphones determines the width and depth of the stereo image.

ORTF stereo recording

Developed by the French Broadcasting Authority, this technique differs from the XY technique by recording not only intensity differences, but also delay differences. The capsules are aligned at an angle of precisely 110° and 170 mm / 6.7 in. apart.
