The black Shure MX415RLP/C 15" Cardioid Microflex Modular Gooseneck Microphone is a gooseneck microphone with a sleek, low-profile suitable for use on conference tables, podiums, altars, and lecterns where aesthetics are important. It features an interchangeable microphone cartridge design and is offered with a cardioid cartridge. The cardioid pick-up pattern focuses voice capture on the subject in front of the mic for less background sound and feedback.
 
The 15" gooseneck features a flexible Microflex section to facilitate precise mic positioning. The red light ring on top indicates the mic's On/Mute status when it is connected to an automatic mixer.
 
The MX415RLP/C comes without a preamp, since it is primarily designed to be mounted on either an MXW8 or ULXD8 wireless tabletop base. Other mounting options are available with the addition of a preamplifier module. The mic features CommShield technology for shielding against RF interference from portable wireless devices.
