Apex146 - Desktop Condenser Microphone with Silent Switch
The Apex146 desktop microphone designed for conferencing or public speaking applications. Three user
selectable operating modes (ON/OFF, Push-To-Talk or Push-To-Mute) functions allow the Apex146 to be
tailored to any specific requirement or application. The large integrated silent touch-switch on the front
panel allows user control of the Apex146 without the annoying snaps and pops that can plague a multimicrophone setup in high gain, high volume applications. An LED illuminated ring in the housing clearly
displays the ready-to-talk condition to the user. The Apex146 is ideal for conferencing, discussion groups,
tele/video conferencing and announcement applications.
The Apex146 is a condenser microphone and requires phantom power to operate. The microphone is
enclosed in a rugged all metal housing with a low reflectance black finish and narrow gooseneck to limit
visual distraction on lectern, conference desk or podium.
The provided foam windscreen simply slips over the element, effectively reducing wind noise and
“popping.” An integrated high-pass filter provides easy switching from a flat frequency response to a lowend roll-off. The roll-off position reduces the pickup of low-frequency ambient noise.
