From Applied Microphone Technologies (AMT), the WS clarinet microphone is unique in design and function. The microphone mounts to the clarinet and features 2 cardioid microphone elements, each attached to flexible goosenecks. The elements are designed to be positioned at the bell and keys of the clarinet.

The dual miking technique results in a natural, authentic reproduction of the instruments mechanics as well as the sound produced from the bell. The elements feature cardioid polar patterns, which suppress residual noise and audio signal at the off-axis sections of the capsule. The microphone connects to a separate beltpack that provides the output stage and power. The WS clarinet microphone operates on 12-52 Volt phantom power.

The WS features dual cardioid microphone elements to capture signal from the bell and keys of the clarinet.

The dual capsules are mounted on goosenecks for flexible, easy microphone positioning.

An external beltpack is wired to the microphone and provides a standard XLR output as well as variable impedance level. The size of the beltpack is convenient for use in performances.

The cardioid polar patterns greatly reduce residual noise and feedback at the off-axis sections of the microphone capsule.

The mounting clasp provides a firm grip without damaging the finish of the instrument.

Q: 1. Do the transmitters have on/off switches to allow presenter to mute themselves?

A: The transmitters included with the Pyle Pro PDWM2958B 2-Person Wireless Combo Microphone System do not have mute controls.

Q: 2. Does it come in a case?

A: When I purchased this set, it came in a box with styrofome. No bag. Also, I don't consider this unit to be portable since the base unit isn't small, so I wouldn't expect a bag to come with it.

Q: 3. are speakers included?

A: No, they are not. You will need speakers and an amplifier for your conference microphone system to operate properly. I have had the microphones for over a year now, and they work very well.Jerry Robinson

Q: 7. XLR (or 1/4") out to USB, for use with Zoom? We're holding meetings that are up to 20 people, hybrid onsite/offsite using Zoom. We used a single omnidirectional mic that was abysmal, the participants at home could hear almost nothing. If I took the XLR out of this, adapted it to USB on the laptop, does anyone know if this would be recognized as a single mic input that would then be broadcast?

A: You can mix the XLR output of the Pyle Pro PDWM8300 VHF Wireless Conference Microphone System (B&H # PYPDWM8300) down through a USB sound card, which will be recognized as a single USB microphone input when connected to a computer.

Q: 8. This system has 16 bit audio instead of 24. Does this make a huge difference?
