WL184M Low-profile Supercardioid Lavalier Microphone

• Wide dynamic range and frequency response for accurate sound reproduction across the audio spectrum
• Interchangeable cartridges that provide an optimal choice for each application
• Rotatable tie-clip that pivots in 90 degree increments for placement flexibility
• Supplied snap-fit foam windscreen that controls breath noise and stays on securely
• Balanced, transformerless output for increased immunity to noise over long cable runs
• Supplied dual tie clip holds two microphones for dual miking applications

What is the MX184 best suited to?

The MX184 supercardioid miniature lavalier condenser microphone is designed for use in speech applications such as broadcast presenting, speeches, lectures and for use in houses of worship.

What is an interchangeable cartridge?

All the Microflex series of microphones use interchangeable cartridges (sold separately) which means you can swap between cardioid, supercardioid and omnidirectional condenser cartridges simply by screwing them on to the top of the lavalier mic.

Want to go wireless?

The MX184 is designed for wired use and includes an in-line preamplifier and a 1.2m cable with TA4F connector. If you wish to go wireless, choose the WL184M which is the same microphone but without the pre-amplifier and connects directly into any Shure wireless bodypack.

DuraPlex DL4 wireless lavalier microphone has been extensively tested to ensure an IP57 dust-resistant, waterproof rating*. Whether shooting reality TV, mounting a professional theatrical tour, or wherever audio takes you, contending with the weather and other demands won’t slow you down with this waterproof microphone. As comfortable on the beach as it is in a broadcast studio, DuraPlex DL4 features a neutral, full sound quality that lives up to the highest audio standards.

The advanced 1.6 mm Shure Plex cable, first introduced with the award-winning TwinPlex subminiature microphone, lasts longer than competing cables due to a dual redundant ground which doubles as a secondary shield. It won’t kink, is fully paintable, and also offers DL4 users virtually zero “memory effect.”

*IP Code, published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), rates the degree of protection against dust (first number) and water (second number). An IP57 rating classifies DuraPlex as follows:

• 5 (Dust) – Ingress of dust is not entirely prevented, but it does not enter in sufficient quantity to interfere with the satisfactory operation of the equipment.
• 7 (Water) – Ingress of water in harmful quantity shall not be possible when the enclosure is immersed in water up to one meter for 30 minutes.

• Subminiature lavalier design; ideal size for theater, television, broadcasting, video, film, and sound reinforcement
• Small, inconspicuous mounting hardware
• Full, clear sound comparable to larger microphones
• Smooth extended frequency response with presence rise specially tailored for chest-worn microphone operation
• Controlled low-frequency rolloff reduces low-frequency clothing and room noise
• Low distortion, wide dynamic range
• Uniform omnidirectional polar pattern

Model WL93 Microphones are economical omnidirectional, subminiature, lavalier, condenser microphones designed for general speech applications where a visually unobtrusive microphone is desirable.

All WL93 models are supplied with a mounting block with attached tie bar, a sew-on mounting bracket, and an acoustic windscreen to minimize wind noise in outdoor applications.

All WL93 models include a cable terminated with a 4-pin mini connector which connects directly to a Shure wireless body-pack transmitter.
