A Capsule Designed for the MicroFlex MX Modular Philosophy
The MicroFlex MX range is appreciated for its installation logic and modularity: depending on the room configuration and ambient noise level, directionality becomes a key criterion. This supercardioid capsule fits this approach by offering a more "focused" pickup option, useful when prioritizing a source (speaker) and limiting surrounding sounds.
Who Is This Supercardioid Capsule For?
This capsule is intended for integrators, installers, and users seeking more focused pickup for uses such as conferences, lectern speech, meeting tables, or sound-reinforced spaces with feedback risk. It is also well suited for maintenance (capsule replacement) or optimization (adapting an existing microphone to new acoustics or room layout).
Supercardioid Directionality to Enhance Intelligibility
Supercardioid directionality is an asset when aiming to improve intelligibility: the capsule favors the voice located on the microphone axis and helps reduce lateral noise. The result is a clearer capture, particularly appreciated when multiple sound sources coexist (audience, ventilation, monitor speakers, other speakers).
Black Color: Controlled Visual Integration
With its black finish, this capsule easily integrates into most professional environments: stages, lecterns, places of worship, boardrooms, or auditoriums. It is a relevant choice when microphone discretion is part of the specifications.

Questions frequently asked
Is the Shure Installation R184B capsule supercardioid?
The R184B features a supercardioid polar pattern designed to emphasize the voice positioned on-axis with the microphone.
Does this capsule reduce room noise?
Its supercardioid pattern helps to attenuate off-axis sounds such as audience noise or ventilation. This ensures the pickup remains focused on the speaker. This configuration enhances intelligibility in environments where multiple sound sources coexist.
Can this capsule be used for a lectern microphone?
This capsule is suitable for lectern speech, meeting tables, and conference installations. It is part of the MicroFlex MX modular approach.
What is the color of the R184B capsule?
The black finish allows discreet visual integration on stage, in an auditorium, or a boardroom.
Can the R184B be used to replace a MicroFlex MX capsule?
This model can be used for maintenance to replace a capsule or to adapt the polar pattern of an existing microphone to new room acoustics.
