Hybrid Lavalier Microphone

CO2 Confidence Dual Element Microphones
CX2-8L Switchable Lavalier, Directional/Omnidirectional Element Lavalier

Model No: CX2-8L

Dual Pattern Elements in One Microphone

PATENTED

At its minimal size, the CX2-8L dual pattern lavalier provides maximum audio flexibility and effortless cable dressing. Elegantly styled, the low-profile compact size will be a guaranteed standout—leaving only the presenter in the spotlight.

Perfect for hybrid events! They're combined for convenience but you can EQ each mic separately. Deliver for a live mix with the omni, and broadcast with the cardioid—simultaneously!

Separate Wire Paths in a Convenient Single Cable Splits to Two Packs
