The AMT Z1L Studio Custom Microphone comes complete with the AP Studio preamp, a case, and AMT disconnecting cable technology to allow the microphone to be used wireless with the Wi5C. Shure, Sabine, and Sennheiser wireless systems (sold separately). The cables are also sold separately.

Designed and manufactured by hand, this microphone is intended to reproduce the rich deep sonic tones of an alto and bass flute while clamping to the instrument (clamp sold separately). It uses D.C.T. (Disconnect Cable Technology) and is suitable for professionals looking for a natural sound reproduction from a clip-on microphone.

The system allows the player to easily change to and from AMT's different preamps (sold separately) while also allowing for direct connections to the Wi5IIC, Sabine, Shure, or Sennheiser wireless systems (sold separately), creating a belt pack free operation. With a change of cable (sold separately), you can convert your Z1L Studio from a wired AP Studio style preamp over to a wireless setup quickly and easily.

The microphone is suspended in a 4-point isolation ring reducing key and handling noise. Phantom power or 9V battery is required for the Studio model. It can be used for soft to loud music for a principal artist, ensemble setting, or for a soloist.

A: Hi Barry: (Sorry I didn't realize that I needed to reply via web form)the microphone was laid in.

Q: 7. Assuming I get this mic what other devices do I ned to connect to our sound system?

A: The AMT P800W Trumpet Microphone System with 1/8" (3.5mm) Mini Connection for Sennheiser Evolution Series Wireless Transmitters includes the P800 microphone along with an extension arm and mount that enables the microphone to mount directly in front of the instrument's bell. This is just the mic and mounting hardware, but it does not include the wireless system (wireless transmitter and wireless receiver) that the P800 microphone will be connecting to. The P800 can be connected to a Sennheiser wireless transmitter that has a locking 1/8" (3.5mm) input connector like the Sennheiser EW 100 G4-ME2 Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System - A1: 470 to 516 MHz (B&H # SEEW100G4MA1) or theSennheiser XSW 1-ME2 UHF Lavalier Microphone Set - A: 548 to 572 MHz (B&H # SESXSW1ME2A). Just use the P800 microphone with the wireless transmitter instead of using the lavalier mic that is included with the Sennheiser system. There are also wireless systems from other manufacturers that are compatible and use the same wiring and input connector as Sennheiser, such as the Rode RODELink Performer Kit Digital Wireless Microphone System (B&H # RODELINKPF) and the Saramonic UwMic 9 (B&H # SATX9RX9). The output from the wireless receiver can be connected to a standard microphone input on a mixer, amplifier, recorder or camera using an appropriate cable.
