Shure MX 418 Gooseneck Podium Microphone

Description

The Shure MX418 Gooseneck Podium Microphone is a professional-grade, condenser microphone designed specifically for podiums, lecterns, and other public speaking environments. Featuring an 18-inch flexible gooseneck, it offers easy and precise microphone positioning. The microphone comes equipped with interchangeable cartridges, including a cardioid polar pattern that provides excellent rejection of ambient noise and ensures clear, focused speech capture. Its integrated shock mount isolates the microphone from surface vibrations, reducing unwanted noise. The MX418 includes a snap-fit foam windscreen to minimize breath and plosive sounds for clearer vocal reproduction. The microphone’s balanced, transformerless output helps deliver a clean signal with high immunity to electromagnetic hum and RF interference, even over long cable runs. With a locking flange mount for secure permanent installation and phantom power requirements (11-52 VDC), the MX418 is an ideal choice for speeches, conferences, courtrooms, and worship services that demand reliable, high-quality vocal sound.
