Shure has introduced a touch-sensitive mute button for Microflex MX395-LED low-profile boundary microphones and MX405, MX410, and MX415 modular gooseneck microphones.
The Microflex A400MB installs like a washer between the microphone body and the table or lectern surface, hiding the circuitry underneath the surface. The mute function is programmed with onboard switches and can be configured as momentary (push-to-talk or push-to-mute) or toggled (push-on, push-off). It includes local and remote modes.
A400MB mute buttons are installed with multiple microphones on a table, pushing any mute button can mute all the mics simultaneously, and all microphone LEDs can also change colour to show that the outgoing audio has been muted.
When used with Shure ANI4IN-Block or ANI22-Bock audio network interfaces and the IntelliMix P300 audio conferencing processor, the mute and LED behaviour is synchronised to simultaneously mute them with Microsoft Teams and Zoom videoconferencing platforms.
