Description
The AT829cW is a wireless clip-on/lavalier condenser microphone
with a cardioid polar pattern. It is designed for professional business
presentations, public speaking and theater performances.
The microphone is intended to be worn on the clothing for excellent yet
unobtrusive sound pickup. The wide-range capability of the microphone
ensures clean, accurate reproduction with high intelligibility for speakers,
presenters and other performers.
The microphone's cardioid polar pattern provides a 120° angle of
acceptance.
The microphone includes a 1.4 m (55") permanently attached miniature
cable. Its free end terminates in a locking 4-pin connector for use with
Audio-Technica UniPak
®
body-pack transmitters.
The microphone comes equipped with a clothing clip and a windscreen.
Operation
For use as a lavalier, attach the microphone about six inches below the
chin. Anticipate movements that may cause the microphone to rub against
or be covered by clothing, and position the microphone to avoid it.
The provided foam windscreen simply slips over the head of the
microphone, effectively reducing wind noise and popping.
Avoid leaving the microphone in the open sun or in areas where
temperatures exceed 110° F (43° C) for extended periods. Extremely high
humidity should also be avoided.
