GENERAL
Shure models WL50/MC50 (omni) and WL51/MC51 (unidirectional) are subminiature, electret condenser lavalier micro-
phones. They provide uncompromised sound quality and high reliability with minimal visibility in sound reinforcement
applications such as television broadcasting and stage performances. Despite its small size, the microphone's condens-
er element provides full, clear and natural reproduction of speech. Each microphone is supplied with two foam wind-
screens to minimize wind noise. The supplied mounting accessories consist of a lapel clip, a tie clip, a pin mount, and
a magnet mount, giving the user a wide variety of options for placement.
