The Clear-Com GM-9 is a professional gooseneck microphone designed for fixed-position communication within intercom and production talkback systems. It features a high-quality, unidirectional dynamic microphone cartridge optimized for voice clarity and effective ambient noise rejection, making it ideal for use in control rooms, broadcast studios, and stage management positions where clear annunciation is critical. The defining characteristic is its flexible metal gooseneck, which allows the user to easily position the microphone capsule exactly where needed for optimal voice pickup—typically a few inches from the mouth—while keeping the base securely mounted to a console, desk, or panel. This hands-free operation enables directors, producers, and stage managers to communicate effortlessly while consulting scripts, operating equipment, or managing multiple tasks.

The microphone is engineered for durability and consistent performance in demanding professional environments. The gooseneck is robust enough to hold its position reliably yet can be adjusted repeatedly without fatigue or failure. It terminates in a standard connector, typically a 3-pin XLR or a proprietary Clear-Com connector like a 4-pin XLR, designed for direct connection to compatible Clear-Com intercom stations, such as the RM-Series remote stations or integrated into custom panels. The GM-9 does not require phantom power, as it is a dynamic microphone, drawing its operating power directly from the intercom system it is connected to, ensuring simple and reliable integration.

This microphone is a staple in production communication due to its focused pickup pattern, which helps isolate the speaker's voice from surrounding control room noise, computer fans, or paper shuffling. Its classic design and proven reliability have made it a trusted component in theaters, television studios, and live event production trucks worldwide. By providing a high-quality, positionable, and hands-free vocal interface, the Clear-Com GM-9 enables clear and efficient communication, which is the backbone of coordinated live production and broadcast operations.
