Audio-Technica Supply UniGuard RFI Protection To Mic Series

Audio-Technica Provides UniGuard RFI Protection for New Engineered Sound Integrator Mic Series.
Audio-Technica has completely re-engineered its premier Engineered Sound integrator microphone line, introducing over 30 new models featuring the company’s unique UniGuard RFI protection technology.
Since its introduction, the Engineering Sound series has been a first choice among leading contractors and system integrators. The re-engineered ES series, comprises a truly comprehensive assortment of 21 gooseneck, six hanging, two boundary, a lavalier and a handheld microphone, and utilises breakthrough audio and mechanical design improvements, to set new standards for signal quality, reliability, and ease of installation. Chief among these is the inclusion of UniGuard RFI-shielding, providing unsurpassed immunity from radio frequency interference; hugely important in today’s increasingly hostile RF environment.
Redesign of the series has also allowed for removal of substances specified in the EU’s RoHS directive, making the series fully compliant. Other new features include superior off-axis rejection for improved gain before feedback, and 80 Hz UniSteep filter for removal of unwanted low frequencies without affecting vocal signal quality. Four new interchangeable elements lend additional flexibility, with cardioid, hypercardioid and omnidirectional elements offered, as well as the MicroLine (90º pickup pattern).
ES gooseneck microphones are designed for a full range of conferencing and presentation applications. The improved, easy-to-adjust, small-diameter gooseneck with virtually no 'memory' permits smooth, quiet and quick positioning into the desired shape. The goosenecks’ super-robust design also resists inadvertent repositioning. Boundary models offer outstanding speech intelligibility, with superior off-axis rejection and maximum gain-before-feedback, for conference tables and a whole host of discrete, challenging reinforcement applications.
The new overhead microphones are ideal for speech, theater, orchestral and choir sound reinforcement or recording. With robust construction, unobtrusive appearance, and unsurpassed immunity to radio frequency interference, these hanging mics offer advanced, versatile sound-reinforcement solutions. The ES973 hypercardioid condenser microphone offers smooth, accurate audio reproduction for handheld and fixed-mount applications. The microphone’s special internal shock mounting eliminates virtually all handling and cable noise. The discreet-design ES943 cardioid, condenser clip microphone offers maximum intelligibility and minimum visibility for quality sound reinforcement, professional recording, television and other demanding sound pickup applications.
