The BLM4060 Boundary Layer Microphone is ideal for use in
boardrooms, conference facilities, courtrooms, teleconferencing and
other applications where excellent vocal pickup is required.
Microphone
The BLM4060 is a transducer designed to work under optimum
conditions when placed on a tabletop, but it also performs well on
any other hard, flat surface that reflects sound. The microphone
element is a prepolarized omnidirectional miniature condenser
microphone with a 5.4 mm (0.2 in) vertical diaphragm specially
designed for maximum performance. The microphone body consists of a
centre rubber disc that holds the microphone element mounted in an
elegant stainless steel base. The BLM4060 has a 3 m (10 ft)
cable.
Position
The BLM4060 can be very easily placed in essentially any position
on the surface, even close to the edge (See graphs & more).
Users will benefit from the special characteristics of the
surrounding sound field on which the BLM4060 is mounted: a 6 dB
gain of direct sound and only 3 dB gain of the diffuse sound.
Therefore, the sound captured has both a greater clarity -
especially at high frequencies - and speech intelligibility
compared to sound captured above the surface.
Accessories
A wide range of connection adapters and power supplies makes it
possible to use the BLM4060 with any microphone input. It is
delivered with a DAD6001 adapter
