A versatile lavalier designed for stage and studio
Designed to remain discreet while delivering faithful reproduction, this electret cardioid lavalier microphone integrates seamlessly into both sound reinforcement setups and recording environments. Its compact power module and robust connectors make it a reliable tool for mobile performances as well as fixed installations.
Who is this lavalier microphone for?
Ideal for singers, speakers, actors, content creators, and sound engineers, it also excels on acoustic instruments. The AT8444 mount allows easy positioning on an acoustic guitar for clear, consistent pickup with low sensitivity to ambient sound leakage.
Key features and sonic benefits
Effective cardioid directivity
The cardioid pattern isolates the main source and limits side and rear sounds. You get a clear voice and an instrument that stands out in the mix, even in noisy environments.
Bass control and unwanted noise management
The switchable 80 Hz high-pass filter (8 dB/octave) reduces rumble, footsteps, or proximity breath noise without sacrificing the warmth of the tone.
Flexible power and reliable connectivity
Operating on AA battery or 11-52 V phantom power, it adapts to all environments. Gold-plated XLRM contacts ensure a durable, corrosion-resistant connection for stable signal transmission.
