Description

The Shure MX418D/C is a professional 18-inch gooseneck condenser microphone engineered for articulate speech in high-demand environments like lecterns, podiums, boardrooms, and houses of worship.

Its flexible gooseneck (18” / 45.7 cm) allows precise positioning, while the desktop base includes a programmable mute button with logic control. Designed for permanent or mobile setups, it features a locking flange mount and includes a snap-fit windscreen for plosive protection.
