Engineered for speaking applications to deliver isolated audio capture while minimizing feedback with its custom-tuned cardioid element.
Shure has announced the introduction of UniPlex, a new 5 mm subminiature cardioid lavalier microphone engineered for speaking applications where rejection of stage noise, an audience, or close-proximity presenters is essential.
Offered in four colours and three connector types, UniPlex joins subminiature lapels and headsets from Shure that include the omnidirectional TwinPlex and DuraPlex portfolios while providing a directional polar pattern. UniPlex’s UL4 unidirectional lavalier microphone is designed to deliver isolated audio capture while minimizing feedback with its custom-tuned cardioid element.
“We knew that the market needed a strong lavalier option that prioritized high-stakes speaking environments with a directional pattern, in a much smaller, cleaner form factor,” says John Born, associate director, Microphones, Global Product Management at Shure. “UniPlex builds on the portfolio by featuring the same Plex technology cable for enhanced durability, yet it focuses on creating clear, isolated sound, ideal for speakers, presenters, and educators alike. We’re excited to introduce UniPlex to our growing suite of exceptional lavaliers and headsets.”
UniPlex’s 1.6 mm Shure Plex Cable technology is designed to help ensure durability and comfort for the wearer. The cable is intended to be immune to kinks and memory effects due to spiral construction with redundant shielding.
UniPlex is available in black, cocoa, tan, and white, and comes with accessories that include a carrying case, snap-fit windscreen, and single tie clip. UniPlex is offered in three connector types—TA4F, LEMO*, and XLR. The new UniPlex UL4 lavalier microphone is now available and retails starting at $299 (U.S.). Go here for more specifics.
*Note: The UniPlex UL4 with LEMO termination is compatible only with Shure LEMO bodypack transmitters and preamplifiers.
