Phantom Mic Riders are the closest thing to having an engineer in every microphone. And now you can choose from two different versions to cover any application you may have. The Pro versions feature 110 dB dynamic range and lower phantom power requirements, allowing these to be used in more demanding applications such as performance audio, recording, and broadcast.
The new reality
Elegant and simple, the Phantom is a real breakthrough. Your processing is now customizable and physically located at each microphone! Think of the applications: retrofit every podium mic at your church, school, boardroom, or teleconferencing center. Get one on every mic you specify from now on!
Phantom Mic Rider Pro Series 3: These new units provide one simple function. They are Infrared Gates that turn your mic on and off based on the presence of a person. The heat-sensing IR module is mounted on the gooseneck or is built-in on the handheld version. You can adjust the IR sensor for both time to turn off (5-15 sec.) and range (3-9 feet). These adjustments allow you to customize the gate function for any application. And the improved specs allow for transparent audio.
Phantom Mic Rider Pro Series 2: In addition to the same adjustable IR Gate as in the 3 Series, the Series 2 Phantom Pro units provide 3 audio processors: Automatic Gain Control for controlling gain as you move toward and away from the mic, Proximity Effect Control for controlling that excess bass sound as you get closer to the mic and maintaining flat frequency response at all distances from the mic, and Plosive Control, for reducing the loud pops and bursts from certain consonant sounds in speech.
The Phantom Mic Rider works with 48V phantom power sources that conform to industry standards (DIN standard 45 596 or IEC standard 268-15A). Devices that do not conform can be modified to meet the standard, or external phantom power supplies can be used. The Phantom delivers benefits for everyone involved with your sound system. Whether they are loud talkers or meek mumblers, all your presenters will appreciate the consistent sound quality and managed gain provided by the Phantom. The technicians will love the fast and easy installation and setup, and they can leave the mic unattended knowing the adaptive functions of the Phantom will take care of feedback, gain, and clarity. The Phantom even turns the mic off when no one is front of it using the included, detachable infrared sensor. The audience will appreciate the clear sound and increased intelligibility, and your accounting department will love the price.
Getting a Phantom is like having an engineer in every microphone who manages the gain, drops in parametric filters to kill feedback, tweaks the EQ when the speaker gets too close, edits out the plosive sounds without affecting the audio, and turns the mic off if no one is near it. With all these features in one small package, all for such a great price,you can afford to put one on every mic in your system.
