Shure PGA98H-XLR Clip-On Cardioid Condenser Horn Mic with Inline Preamp & Cable (15')

The Shure PGA98H-XLR is a microphone that clips directly onto brass and woodwind instruments, giving players a simple way to place the capsule right at the bell without using a stand. Because the mic attaches with an integrated horn clamp and sits on a gooseneck that bends easily, you can aim it for the best tone in seconds and keep it steady during a long set.

Its condenser cartridge has a cardioid polar pattern, so the mic focuses on the instrument while it reduces bleed from drums, monitors, or other horns on a busy stage. This design helps the front-of-house engineer keep the mix clean and lets the performer hear a more accurate monitor feed.

The in-line preamp and the included 15 foot XLR cable allow a direct connection to any mixing console or audio interface that supplies 11 to 52 volt phantom power. With a maximum sound pressure level of 130 dB, the mic can handle aggressive trumpet hits or bold saxophone lines without distorting, making it just as useful in the studio as it is on a festival stage.

Players who move between small clubs, pit orchestras, and broadcast sessions will appreciate the consistent sound, quick setup, and modest footprint. When the gig is over, the windscreen keeps breath noise under control, and the zippered pouch protects the mic during transport.
