RTS MCP-90-8 Wired Electret Condenser Microphone - Black

The MCP-90-8 is a premium wired electret condenser microphone designed for professional podium, desk, and broadcast applications. Built around RTS’s back-electret technology, this compact gooseneck mic delivers enhanced sensitivity, a broad, natural frequency response, and exceptional resistance to handling noise compared with traditional diaphragm-electret designs. The result is crystal-clear speech capture that stays intelligible and consistent whether you’re delivering a lecture, hosting a panel, or presenting at a conference. A removable windscreen provides wind and pop protection while preserving sound quality, making the MCP-90-8 an ideal choice for crowded rooms, educational venues, and professional studios alike. Its rugged construction and simple, reliable wiring make it a versatile solution for environments where speech clarity matters most.

  • Back-electret design for superior sensitivity and wider frequency response: The MCP-90-8 uses RTS’s back-electret technology to capture voice with detailed nuance and extended tonal range, delivering a natural, speech-friendly sound that remains clear across varying room acoustics.
  • Gooseneck versatility with precise positioning: The compact gooseneck architecture lets you angle the microphone exactly where it’s needed, providing consistent pickup whether it’s mounted on a podium, desktop, or lectern.
  • Phantom-powered operation for clean, quiet performance: This wired microphone relies on standard phantom power from compatible mixers or mic preamps, delivering a quiet, low-noise signal path suitable for professional environments.
  • Removable windscreen for wind and pop protection: A included or integrated windscreen shields the diaphragm from breath and popping sounds while preserving fidelity, with easy removal for cleaning or replacement.
  • Broad compatibility for conference, education, and broadcast: Designed to pair seamlessly with existing audio setups, podium systems, and educational technology, the MCP-90-8 is a reliable choice for any space that prioritizes clear speech and dependable performance.
