Audio-Technica AT8531 Belt-pack type power module, phantom/battery ...
Product Overview
The Audio-Technica AT8531 is a belt-pack power module that supplies operating voltage to Audio-Technica gooseneck, overhead, and lavalier microphones. It accepts phantom power and can also run from a single AA battery, giving installers flexibility where phantom is unavailable. A low-frequency roll-off switch helps minimize structure-borne and wind noise. The unit takes a TA3M input and delivers signal through an integral 3-pin XLRM output.
Product Description
The AT8531 is an in-line, body-pack power supply for Audio-Technica microphones that require dedicated powering, including the AT803b, AT831b, ATM73a, ATM75, U841A, U851A, U853A(W), U853A(W)U, and U857A(W)U. It is engineered for phantom and battery operation, drawing from external phantom power or a single 1.5V AA battery so a microphone stays usable when a mixer or interface cannot supply phantom. A low-frequency roll-off switch is provided to reduce structure-borne rumble and wind noise, which is useful for lecterns, podiums, and stage setups. Signal enters on a TA3M (3-pin) input and exits on an integral 3-pin XLRM connector, matching standard balanced audio infrastructure. A belt clip provides added stability for talent or presenters who move during a program. Because the module is self-contained, it slots into installed-sound and portable rigs without rewiring the microphone itself. This Audio-Technica belt-pack power module is a dependable choice for conference rooms, houses of worship, and broadcast environments.
