The PRO70 Lavalier Tie Clip Microphone from Audio-Technica is specially designed for professional recording, quality sound reinforcement, television, and other demanding sound pickup applications. You can either wear it on your clothes or use it as an instrument microphone for outstanding yet unobtrusive sound pickup. The wide-range capability of the mic ensures accurate and clean reproduction with super-high intelligibility for presenters and speakers as well as for instrument pickup. It showcases a compact design, which makes it suitable for use in applications where minimum visibility is needed. This versatile mic features a cardioid polar pattern to reduce the pickup of sounds from the rear as well as sides. It features a low-frequency roll-off switch that minimises low-frequency noise due to the proximity effect and wind. Designed to make speech and music comfortably and clearly audible, the lavalier microphone can operate on battery or phantom power.
