Shure MicroFlex MX418 18" Cardioid Gooseneck Microphone

The Shure MX418SE/C is an 18-inch gooseneck microphone built for spoken-word clarity at podiums, lecterns, and conference tables. Pair it with a sound system in a council chamber, training room, or house of worship, and every voice comes through with the presence and detail listeners need.

Three interchangeable capsules let you choose the pickup pattern that matches the room. Use the cardioid capsule to focus on a single speaker, swap to supercardioid when you need tighter rejection of nearby noise, or choose omnidirectional for round-table discussions. Changing capsules takes only seconds, so you can adapt without swapping the entire microphone.

The output is balanced and transformerless, which helps keep the signal clean even when the cable run is long. An integrated shock mount isolates the mic from table bumps, and the snap-fit windscreen controls breath noise and plosives. Once you dial in the position, the locking flange mount secures the gooseneck so it stays exactly where you set it, meeting the expectations of facilities that demand dependable hardware.

Whether you are outfitting a corporate boardroom, updating a university lecture hall, or specifying gear for a conference center, the MX418SE/C provides the flexibility, durability, and sound quality professionals rely on.
