For music lovers and presenters

that vocals will easily cut through high on-stage sound levels. Its cardioid pick-up pattern provides
additional isolation from unwanted sound and great feedback rejection. The capsule is shock-mounted
to minimize handling noise, while the mic’s frequency response (55 to 16,000 Hz) filters out any
structure-borne low-frequency noise.

their sound transmission. Whenever the switch is not needed, it can be securely locked in the “On”
position. The microphone has been designed to be rugged enough to take on a life of performing – with
an all-metal body and a hardened sound inlet basket to protect its capsule.
The XS 1 cardioid dynamic microphone is delivered with a stand mount and a leatherette pouch for
transport.
