CAD Audio GN100 is a cardioid condenser gooseneck microphone on a weighted desktop base, built for boardrooms, classrooms, council chambers, home offices and remote meetings. A flexible 16 inch neck puts the capsule close to the talker, the base carries a volume knob, a mute button and a red active light, and a 6 foot XLR cable connects it to any mixer or interface with 48V phantom power.
A desk mic that keeps the capsule at the talker and the noise off the table.
The GN100 sits on a conference table or office desk and lifts the capsule above the surface, away from paper rustle and keyboard noise. The cardioid pattern favors the person in front of it and rejects sound from the sides and rear, which keeps speech clear and intelligible in reinforced rooms and on recordings.
Control lives where the talker can reach it. The base has a volume control, a mute button and a red indicator that shows when the mic is live, and the windscreen removes for cleaning.
