Audio Technica U857QU UniLine Condenser Microphone
The Audio Technica U857QU UniLine Condenser Microphone feature Audio-Technica’s UniLine® line-cardioid element with a tightly focused 90º acceptance angle, it is a quick-mount gooseneck condenser microphone and professionally designed to be plugged in directly into a panel- or desk-mounted XLRF-type connector; it is 19.17” long. Its robust, ultra-flexible gooseneck permits easy adjustment into desired shape while resisting inadvertent repositioning. Also comes with the UniGuard® innovations that is offering unsurpassed immunity from radio frequency interference, the Audio Technica U857QU is able to accepth the interchangeable elements, available omnidirectional, cardioid, UniLine™, and hypercardioid line cardioid polar patterns. The phantom-powered microphone also is also offering an 80 Hz low-cut UniSteep® filter that is able to reduce the pickup of low-frequency ambient noise.
