What sets the PRO8HECW apart
Unlike simple boom microphones, the PRO8HECW offers a true hypercardioid pickup that enables precise sound capture from a single direction while effectively cancelling out unwanted background noise. The dynamic capsule is resistant to moisture and temperature fluctuations – a reliable partner for demanding stage use. The black finish is subtle and complements any stage outfit.
Ideal for singers, speakers and presenters
This microphone is especially suitable for live performers who need to move freely on stage without being tied to a stand. It is also perfect for presenters at trade shows or conferences looking for a hands-free solution with excellent speech intelligibility. The hypercardioid pattern minimises feedback and ensures clean audio tracks.
How to use the PRO8HECW
Connect the headset microphone directly to a microphone input on a mixer or amplifier. The adjustable headband fits the shape of your head, positioning the capsule about 1–2 cm from the corner of the mouth. Thanks to its light weight of only 0.5 kg, it remains comfortable even over longer periods. After use, the microphone can be cleaned with a damp cloth – the earpiece part is removable for storage.
