The Audio-Technica BP892 is a headworn condenser microphone with an omnidirectional polar pattern. It is designed to provide intelligible natural audio for stage and television talent, lecturers, and houses of worship.
The microphone features a diameter of only 2.6 mm and offers an ergonomic under-ear design: its flexible, lightweight contoured loop hooks behind the ear for an ultra-secure, comfortable fit with or without glasses. The microphone requires 11V to 52V phantom power for operation.
The microphone includes a 1.4 m (55") permanently attached miniature cable. Its free end connects to the provided AT8539 power module via a locking 4-pin connector. The connector is also compatible with all Audio-Technica UniPak® body-pack transmitters. The output of the power module is a 3-pin XLRM-type connector.
A recessed switch in the power module permits a choice of flat response or low-frequency roll-off (via integral 80 Hz high-pass UniSteep® filter) to help control undesired ambient noise. The microphone comes equipped with a power module, a cable clip, two windscreens, two element covers, a moisture guard and a belt clip. A protective carrying case is also included. The microphone is available in black and beige.
