The Shure MX418D/S is a professional desktop gooseneck condenser microphone from the Microflex series, designed for clear, focused speech capture in conference rooms, boardrooms, houses of worship, and presentation spaces. It features a supercardioid polar pattern that provides excellent off-axis rejection, helping to isolate the speaker’s voice and reduce background noise or feedback.
The flexible 18-inch gooseneck allows precise positioning. The integrated desktop base includes a programmable on/off switch with LED indicator and logic functions for remote control or automatic mixing systems. The attached 3-meter cable with 3-pin XLR connector and phantom power (11-52 V DC) ensures easy setup and compatibility with most mixers and audio interfaces.
