Designed to plug directly into a panel- or desk-mounted XLRF-type connector,
the U859QL cardioid condenser quick-mount gooseneck microphone features an
ultra-flexible small-diameter gooseneck and accepts interchangeable elements,
available in cardioid, hypercardioid, omnidirectional and UniLine™ line cardioid
polar patterns. Equipped with self-contained electronics, the phantom-powered
microphone also offers an 80 Hz low-cut UniSteep® filter that reduces pickup of
low-frequency ambient noise. The microphone is 18.90” long.
* Designed for high-quality sound reinforcement, professional recording and
broadcasting
