HM2 Headworn condenser microphone, cardioid

A lightweight cardioid headworn condenser that sounds like a handheld vocal mic.

Move, sing, teach: and keep both hands free. At just 0.9 ounces, the HM2 rides on a behind-the-head band that stays put through a full set, with a flexible boom that tucks out of the camera frame. The cardioid element pulls in the voice and turns down monitors, instruments, and crowd noise, and carries the proximity warmth singers expect from a handheld. Lead vocalists, instrumentalists, instructors, presenters: the mic disappears, the voice stays front and center.
