Clip-on microphone Audio-Technica ATR1100X

The Audio-Technica ATR1100x handheld microphone is tuned for clear audio reproduction and designed for wired use with devices that accept a 3.5 mm input. Its unidirectional polar pattern focuses pickup on the sound source and reduces feedback. The microphone includes a permanently attached 3 m cable, an on/off switch, a desk stand and a 6.3 mm adapter for flexible connection options.

Advantages

The ATR1100x provides focused sound capture from a single source thanks to its unidirectional pattern, helping to minimise background noise and feedback. Its fixed 3 m cable and included 6.3 mm adapter allow straightforward connection to computers, karaoke machines and PA systems. The integrated on/off switch and compact black design support simple operation and discreet use.

How to use

Connect the ATR1100x to a compatible device via the 3.5 mm plug or use the included 6.3 mm adapter for equipment with a 1/4" input. Switch the microphone on using the integrated on/off switch, position the mic so the capsule faces the sound source, and maintain a consistent distance for even levels. Use the desk stand for tabletop applications or hold the microphone for vocal and instrument capture.

Usage recommendations

For best results, place the microphone 5–20 cm from the sound source for vocals and adjust distance for instruments. Avoid covering the capsule and keep the cable secured to prevent handling noise. Use the unidirectional pattern to point away from monitors and other noise sources to reduce feedback.
