Miniature cardioid condenser hanging microphone, phantom power only, includes foam windscreen and steel hanger, black
Overview
ES933
The ES933 condenser hanging microphone is designed for quality sound reinforcement, professional recording, television, and other demanding sound pickup applications. Its low-profile design and excellent response make it ideally suited for suspending over choirs, instrumental groups and theater stages.
The microphone is equipped with a 15.2 m (50') permanently attached miniature cable, terminated with a TA3F-type connector that attaches to compatible Audio-Technica power modules. UniGuard® RFI-shielding technology protects the microphone from radio frequency interference (RFI).
The microphone comes with a two-stage foam windscreen and vinyl-coated steel hanger. Additional interchangeable elements – omnidirectional (360°), cardioid (120°), hypercardioid (100°), and MicroLine® (90°) – are available separately.
Available configurations:
ES933C/MIC:cardioid polar pattern (120° acceptance angle); no power module; low-reflectance black finish.
ES933H/MIC:hypercardioid polar pattern (100° acceptance angle); no power module; low-reflectance black finish.
ES933ML/MIC:MicroLine polar pattern (90° acceptance angle); no power module; low-reflectance black finish.
ES933WC/MIC:cardioid polar pattern (120° acceptance angle); no power module; low-reflectance white finish.
