DESCRIPTION
The WCU250 is an electret condenser, uni-directional, professional microphone
perfectly-suited for picking up audio from large groups such as choirs, orches-
tras, and musical ensembles. Because it can be ceiling-mounted and is compact
in size, the WCU250 is very useful in minimizing visual distraction for the per-
formers and the audience alike, and limits intrusion into the working space.
The WCU250 utilizes a superior-quality,state-of-the-art transducer element and
circuitry. It features a transformerless, direct-coupled design to ensure clear,
transparent reproduction of even the most delicate transients at the highest
output levels.
The WCU250 cable is terminated by a mini-XLR (female).A mini-XLR to stan-
dard XLR adapter houses the pre-amplifier. Its specially-tailored wide, flat fre-
quency response provides enhanced and full, rich reproduction of voice and
music. The microphone requires an external 9V - 52V DC phantom power sup-
ply.The WCU250 comes in an inconspicuous, non-reflective matte black finish.
