ProCoPower Mute Mic Mute Switch
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Inline mic mute switch. For talkers who need to kill the mic between cues without touching a console fader or the mic itself.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Podium and lectern mics where a speaker mutes between remarks
- Broadcast or streaming positions needing a local kill switch
- Houses of worship where the operator is not always at the board
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting a footswitch — this is not a pedal
- Anyone whose console mute is already within reach
- Budget setups where a channel mute costs nothing
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Mic mute switch
Cuts the mic without touching gain, so levels stay set when you unmute.
Detail 03
Black finish
Stays visually quiet on a podium or in a broadcast shot instead of drawing the eye.
Detail 04
Hardware switch, not software
No latency, no menu, no console dependency. Works the same regardless of what desk you plug into.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No XLR cables included — you supply mic cable and the run to the board
- 02Confirm it passes phantom power if you are using a condenser mic
- 03Test the switch for click or thump before a live event
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Where does this go in the signal chain?
Between the microphone and the cable heading to your console or interface. Muting at the source means nothing downstream hears the mic.
02Does it work with condenser mics that need phantom power?
Check phantom pass-through before committing to it. Some inline mutes interrupt the phantom feed when engaged, which can cause a pop on unmute.
03Will I hear a pop when I mute?
Depends on the mic and preamp. Test it with your actual chain before a live event so you know how it behaves.
04Is this a footswitch?
No. It is an inline switch for the cable run, operated by hand. If you need hands-free control, look for a foot-operated mute instead.
