The included capsule protection grid enhances vocal clarity by providing a subtle 4 dB boost in the 8-20 kHz range, ensuring crisp and intelligible speech. The protective cap is removable for cleaning and locks securely in place with a tactile and audible click.

MicroLock Connector for Secure and Reliable Performance

This version of the 6061 CORE features a MicroLock connector, a compact and wear-resistant locking system designed for long-term reliability. The secure connection prevents accidental disconnection, making it ideal for demanding productions where consistent performance is required. The MicroLock system is fully backward compatible with MicroDot connectors, ensuring maximum flexibility for various wireless setups.

Adapters Available for Various Wireless Transmitters

Simply select the appropriate adapter for your system to seamlessly integrate this microphone into your existing wireless setup. This modular approach eliminates the need to purchase multiple microphones for different transmitters.

Optimized for Loud Vocals and Speech in High-SPL Environments

Designed to handle sound pressure levels up to 125 dB RMS and 128 dB peak with less than 1% distortion, the 6061 CORE is ideal for loud vocalists, speakers, and presenters. Even at 144 dB peak SPL, distortion remains minimal at just 10%, ensuring clean and natural sound reproduction. This makes it a great choice for live theater, energetic presentations, and other high-volume applications.

Omnidirectional Pickup Pattern for Consistent Audio Capture

The forgiving omnidirectional pickup pattern captures sound evenly from all directions, ensuring consistent frequency response even when the talent moves or turns away from the microphone. This feature makes it particularly useful for dynamic stage performances, interviews, and video production, where movement is natural and unavoidable.
