A Mic That Will Fit Anywhere!

The MX412/C cardioid Microflex gooseneck microphone brings a whole new meaning to the word flexible with its fully adjustable gooseneck. Designed primarily for speech and vocal pickup this microphone mounts easily on a lectern, pulpit, or conference table. Interchangable capsules (sold separately) allow you to easily convert the MX412/C to supercardioid or omnidirectional polar patterns, both with the same wide frequency response and accurate sound reproduction that makes the MX412/C perfect for a wide variety of applications, such as houses of worship, courtrooms and conference centers. Plus, the condenser cartridges fit every model in the Microflex product line for enhanced convenience and consistent sound. This is an MX412 with no switch and a cardioid pickup pattern. Call 800-222-4700 for additional cartridges in cardioid or omnidirectional patterns.

Shure MX412/C Cardioid Gooseneck Microphone Features at a Glance:
  • Wide dynamic range and frequency response for accurate sound reproduction across the audio spectrum
  • Interchangeable cartridges (sold separately) provide the right polar pattern for every application
  • Balanced, transformerless output for increased immunity to noise over long cable runs
  • Shock mount that provides over 20dB isolation from surface vibration noise

Shure MX412/C in an excellent gooseneck for any speech application!

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Fantastic Mic for Church Pulpit

Used for our church main pulpit and it works great. The vibration mount reduces the noise from bible or hymnals being opened on the pulpit and the sound is crisp.
Rated 4/5

Best Tool For The Job

Lectern microphones when spoken into by inexperienced speakers can drive even the most experienced audio engineer to drink. (Of course in reality it takes very little to get most audio engineers to drink, but you get the point.) For years we have used an 18" gooseneck mic and have had problems with the infamous plosives. We noticed the worse offenders would always pull the mic to them and proceed to inadvertently beat box their speech. For this last graduation cycle of 5 major commencements in 2 days we purchased the Shure MX412/C. We found with some notable exceptions, because the mic was not as accessible to be re positioned the speakers by in large spoke without paying attention to the mic and thus no popping of the p's. This mic has excellent response and great range for speaking situations.

As always my reps. at Sweetwater handled my order with the professionalism and speed I have come to expect.
