Audio Technica U843R Multidirectional Microphone

Three channel boundary cardioid condenser microphone

The phantom-powered Audio Technica U843R is a Multidirectional Microphone with three cardioid condenser elements housed in a single housing, it is offering a remarkably versatile tool for surface-mount installations. Levers on the microphone base are allowing an easy reorientation of two elements designed to offer  300° or 360° coverage. Since elements can be used and powered individually or in any combination, further flexibility is easily achieved. For example, the microphone is able to provide a figure-of-eight polar pattern, alongside two elements powered, and with a single element powered, the microphone functions as a standard cardioid boundary microphone. Repositionin and installation are extremely quick, that is made possible by the four recessed pathways on the base of the microphone that is giving the user the capability to route the cable as required for accommodating any installation requirements; no disassembly or tools are needed. The microphone is also able to offer Audio-Technica’s innovative UniGuard® RFI-shielding technology.
