[. . . ] PolarChoice PC-12/XLR PolarChoice PC-18/XLR Miniature Multi-Pattern Podium Microphone Key Features: · · · · · · · · Dual Capsule Design with four polar patterns: Omnidirectional, Cardioid, Supercardioid, and Hypercardioid. Switchable high pass filter Consistent on-axis response. [. . . ] The PolarChoiceTM PC-12/XLR and PolarChoiceTM PC-18/XLR are designed to be phantom-powered with a wide voltage range of 12-52V dc (DIN Standard 45 596). PolarChoice PC-12/XLR PolarChoice PC-18/XLR Microphone Applications: The PolarChoiceTM PC-12/XLR and PolarChoiceTM PC-18/XLR can be used on lecterns, podiums, desk and table-tops, or other applications which require a quick plug-in gooseneck microphone. To maximize gain-before-feedback the PolarChoiceTM's three directional polar patterns allow the user to pick the directional polar pattern for optimum effect. For those applications where gain-before-feedback is not a problem, an omnidirectional pattern is included. Applications requiring speaking close to the microphone at podiums, lecterns, or pulpits normally require a windscreen to control breath noise and P-popping or, in some cases, wind noise from circulating air.

This unique one-piece ported design offers greatly improved resistance to "P"-popping noise by creating a two-stage filter that has an air space between the stages. This makes the multi-port windscreen as effective as much larger traditional designs. Shock Mount Installation: Drill a 1-3/8 inch hole to mount the hard plastic flange into the desk, table, or lectern top. The type of screws used to fasten the flange will depend on the desktop material. Gently push the flexible shock mount onto the electronics housing. Position the flexible shock mount to cover the polar selection switch. Insert the microphone and shock mount into the hard plastic flange using a twisting action to seat the shock mount. Dimension Drawings: Frequency Response: Polars: Architectural & Engineering Specs: PolarChoiceTM PC-12/XLR, PC-18/XLR The microphone shall be a back-electret condenser type with a frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz.
