microphone intended for on-stage vocal pickup. Its cardioid
pattern is uniform with frequency, and its response has been
specially-tailored at mid and high frequencies for improved
speech intelligibility. The microphone capsule is shock-

the TM 40 module to create a wireless microphone compatible
with the AKG WMS 40 series receivers.
