Radial HotShot 48V Condenser Microphone Switcher

Radial HotShot 48V Condenser Microphone Switcher

Stage Toggle for Condenser Mics: The HotShot 48V allows silent switching of condenser microphones on stage, ideal for communication or routing to stage monitoring.

LED Indicators: Display active output, and the footswitch can be configured for latching or momentary action.

Works with Dynamic Mics: While designed for condenser mics, it works equally well with dynamic microphones.

Silent Switching: Employs active circuitry and a time delay microcontroller for noiseless switching, preventing pops or disruptions during performances.

The Radial HotShot 48V is a Condenser Microphone Switcher designed for silent operation on stage, providing artists with a convenient way to power their vocal microphone and reroute its signal to the stage monitoring system at the press of a footswitch. LED indicators clearly display the active output, and the footswitch can be configured for latching or momentary action to suit your performance needs. While the HotShot 48V is specifically tailored for switching condenser microphone outputs, it is also compatible with dynamic microphones, offering versatility for various applications.

One common issue with passive audio switchers is the audible pop or noise that can occur during switching, which can be transmitted through the PA system and disrupt a performance. This noise can result from the introduction of phantom power or stray DC offset from any powered device connected to the switcher. The HotShot 48V addresses this problem by utilizing active circuitry and a time delay microcontroller, ensuring completely silent switching under any conditions. When the switching relay is activated, a brief five-millisecond delay is introduced, short enough to go unnoticed by the artist but sufficient to allow any DC leakage to dissipate. This prevents audible noise and ensures seamless switching during live performances.

Experience hassle-free and silent switching of condenser microphones on stage with the Radial HotShot 48V Condenser Microphone Switcher, suitable for artists, technicians, and bands seeking a reliable solution for microphone routing and communication during live shows.
