Supercardioid Condenser Vocal Microphone Capsule for Select Handheld Transmitters
Offering the power and quality of a condenser microphone with the safety and familiarity of a dynamic, the SR3117 from Earthworks is a rugged and versatile workhorse microphone capsule designed for use with select handheld wireless transmitters from Shure, Audio-Technica, and Line 6 (available separately) that support interchangeable mic capsules. The microphone can be used on vocals and a wide variety of instruments for live sound applications and home/project studio recording. The mic features a 10mm condenser capsule that delivers accurate and clear reproduction of audio sources without the need for copious amounts of corrective EQ.
A Supercardioid Solution for Stage and Studio
The SR3117 features a supercardioid polar pattern that focuses audio capture in a tight, narrow band in front of the capsule, helping to reduce feedback problems when sound reinforcement equipment is used. In addition, the capsule is nicely suited for recording sessions in untreated home studios and control rooms, as it picks up fewer off-axis reflections that can color the sound. With the ability to handle SPLs up to 140 dB, the microphone can be used on very loud vocalists and instruments without distorting. Singers and musicians will also appreciate the enhanced protection from handling, wind, and plosive noise, allowing them to worry less about mic technique and focus instead on delivering powerful performances.
Compatible Handheld Transmitters
The SR3117 can be used on a wide variety of handheld transmitters that support interchangeable microphone capsules. The capsule simply screws on to the transmitter's base and you're ready to go.
