Description:

The SM87A with the UR2 transmitter features the SM87A supercardioidPicks up most sound in front of the microphone and very little from the sides, making it more directional than a cardioid mic.

The flagship UR2 Wireless Handheld Transmitter offers the most advanced features and controls including a bit-mapped backlit LCD display, infrared automatic transmitter sync and switchable RF power. It also has frequencyThis is how many times a sound or radio wave oscillates in one second.Read moreGo to the glossary and power lockout cabability and can be used continuously for up to 8 hours using 2 x AA Batteries (included). The UR2 is made from an all-metal die-cast construction for maximum durability.

This transmitter requires the UR4D or UR4S receiver to complete the system.
