General Description
Dual microphone conguration features
The M-100 features two built-in microphone elements, one dynamic and one condenser.
The unique output signals may be individually crafted and then blended to produce a single rich voice signal. The condenser microphone responds to a broad frequency range
including the distinctive crisp highs, while the dynamic microphone adds depth and
warmth, providing the emotional subtext desirable for a genial “ragchew”. By combining
the two different microphone elements in this manner, a favorable sound quality can be
created for any operating style.
Treble boost cowling produces a unique tonal texture
The simple clip-on cowling enhances the high-frequency response of both microphone
elements, and can minimize the aural interference from either side. The cowling serves
to concentrate the voice input with a peak at around 1 - 1.5 kHz, producing a unique tonal texture.
Air cylinder magnetic contactless PTT key
The PTT key with contactless triple air cylinder magnetic construction delivers smooth
ngertip-sensitive operation over an extended stroke distance.
The key has been designed with optimal balance between key weight and stroke to provide the perfect tactile response. Meanwhile, the contactless switch provides years of
fault-free operation with minimal mechanical degradation.
The PTT key features a built-in one click lock function.
Convenient High-Cut lter and Low-Cut lter key buttons are at your ngertips.
