Audio-Technica AT8657/LED

Featuring a flush tabletop-mount design the AT8657/LED microphone socket allows for the easy use of any 21 mm gooseneck or button-style boundary microphone with a 3-pin XLRM-type output – including our ES945 and ES947 – in a variety of presentation environments. The socket’s logic out capability permits control of remote devices from a programmable capacitance switch so users can easily trigger an external device (e.g. a camera or light) with the touch of a button – an extremely useful feature in conference and boardroom installations. The socket also features a lock switch that automatically locks the microphone in place upon insertion holding it securely until switch is manually released by user. Additionally an integral Red/Green LED ring is controllable from a logic-enabled device and is powered by the microphone’s phantom power eliminating the need for an additional power source. Each socket comes with a pair of rubber isolation rings and a metal retainer ring (for use with gooseneck mics only) to dampen surface vibrations.Key Features• Flush-mount microphone socket for use with any 21 mm gooseneck or button style boundary microphone with a 3-pin XLRM-type output• Logic out capability permits control of remote devices from built-in switch• Integral phantom-powered Red/Green LED indicator• Lock tap automatically locks microphone in place holding it securely until switch is manually released by user• 5-pin XLR output• Comes with rubber isolation rings and a metal retainer ring (for use with gooseneck mics only) to dampen surface vibrations
