AUDIO TECHNICA SUBMINIATURE OMNIDIRECTIONAL CONDENSER LAVALIER MICROPHONE

Operation and MaintenanceThe BP899 requires 11V to 52V phantom power for operation.Output is low impedance (Lo-Z) balanced. The signal appears across Pins 2 and 3; Pin 1 is ground (shield). Output phase is "Pin 2 hot"-positive acoustic pressure produces positive voltage at Pin 2.An integral 80 Hz high-pass filter provides easy switching from a flat frequency response to a low-end roll-off. The roll-off position reduces the microphone's sensitivity to popping in close vocal use. It also reduces the pickup of low-frequency ambient noise (such as traffic, air-handling systems, etc.), room reverberation and mechanically coupled vibrations. To engage the high-pass filter, use the end tip of a paperclip or other small pointed instrument to slide the switch toward the "bent" line.For use as a lavalier, attach the microphone about six inches below the chin. Anticipate movements that may cause the microphone to rub against or be covered by clothing, and position the microphone to avoid it. When using the microphone in extremely close situations, slip the included openpore foam windscreen over the mic to reduce wind noise or popping. Use the included resonance cap to protect the microphone element from contaminants. An included resonance cap can be applied to the microphone to provide even greater intelligibility, and it is designed to direct sweat and other moisture away from the microphone.Avoid leaving the microphone in the open sun or in areas where temperatures exceed 110° F (43° C) for extended periods. Extremely high humidity should also be avoided. Wireless Models DescriptionThe microphone is also available in a variety of wireless models, including the BP899cH. The BP899cH includes a 1.4 m (55") permanently attached miniature cable terminated with a screw-down 4-pin connector for use with Audio-Technica cH-style body-pack transmitters. Models are also available in a variety of terminations for use with many other manufacturers' wireless systems. No power module is included (or required) with the wireless models. The wireless models' dimensions, polar pattern and included accessories are otherwise identical to those of the BP899.Also available unterminated as the BP899c.Product TypeMicrophoneTechnical InformationConnectivity TechnologyWired/WirelessCable Length4.59 ftMinimum Frequency Response20 HzMaximum Frequency Response20 kHzImpedance250 OhmMicrophoneMicrophone TechnologyCondenserPolar Pattern
