This black Shure UL4 UniPlex is a cardioid subminiature lavalier microphone equipped with an RPM400TQG preamplifier for XLR connectivity with a mixer or recorder. Tailored specifically for speech, this professional mic delivers superb directional capture of your voice for presentations, conferences, education, broadcast, and more.

The UL4 UniPlex features a 5mm subminiature capsule for unobtrusive placement on camera. With its directional pickup pattern, the mic offers high gain before feedback, making it well suited for speech at events with loud sound reinforcement. The thin, 1.6mm Shure Plex cable features a dual-redundant ground that serves as secondary shield, giving it added protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and unprecedented durability. The fully paintable cable is immune to memory effect and kinks.

Q: 1. Will this work with the new Rode Wireless PRO TX?

A: Yes, the Sennheiser MKE 2 Gold Series Subminiature Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector is compatible for use with the transmitters included with the RODE Wireless PRO 2-Person Clip-On Wireless Microphone System.

Q: 2. Is the mic head of Shure BLX188 Wireless Cardioid Lavalier Mic adjustable to the position of the source of sound? Will the mic capture the sound when the speaker turns the head sideway?

A: The lapel microphones in the Shure BLX188/CVL Dual-Channel Wireless Cardioid Lavalier Microphone System feature a directional (although wide) cardioid pickup pattern. When clipped to the collar, they should capture the speaker's voice in most orientations when the lapel microphone is oriented in an upward position, although perhaps to a lesser effect if the speaker turns their head.

Q: 8. is any of the three available frequency bands less vulnerable to interference? I want to use them in a deposition setting that changes from day to day from high end conference rooms to witnesses homes.

A: I can't speak to the 3 different band versions, but I can say that each version has a wide array of sub-bands you can choose from. Further more, the receiver has a function where you can have it select the sub-band with the least amount of interference -- it scans every band and then sets itself to the cleanest one. You then just set the transmitter to match. It has worked very well for me.

Q: 9. Can I mute mic from the body pack?

A: No, the transmitter does not have a mute switch.
