Independent shopping perspective
For presentations and performance capture, the black WL185m is a compact cardioid condenser lavalier with a LEMO termination. Its front-focused pickup pattern is intended to reduce feedback and surrounding noise, keeping attention on the source in front of the mic. The profile is 8 mm shorter than previous Shure lavalier models, and its tie clip can place the mic at 90-degree angles, giving you more control over placement for speaking applications.
