| Micro Wash WWCW Warm White/Cool White LED Par Is Newest Fixture In American DJ’s Series Of Mini Effects
|
American DJ has “white sized” the concept of a warm white/cool white color-mixing wash fixture. The company’s new Micro Wash WWCW is an ultra-bright mini white LED par can that weighs barely more than 1.5 pounds, yet can produce variable color temperatures ranging from 3000°K (Warm White) to 6000°K (Cool White).
The latest addition to American DJ’s Micro Series of mini lighting effects, the Micro Wash WWCW contains 4 x 1-watt Warm White and 3 x 1-watt Cool White LEDs, allowing users to smoothly blend any shade of white they wish – from the warmest tungsten to the coolest daylight. And because this powerful par is so tiny and compact (under 7 inches long) its palette of whites can be taken anywhere, even to the smallest places and tightest spaces. This makes the Micro Wash WWCW great for table or cake spotting, retail displays, performance stages, mobile entertainers, small clubs and more.

| TASCAM Announces iM2 Stereo Microphone for iPad / iPhone / iPod Touch
|
|
TASCAM, a well known veteran for creating home recording devices, today introduced a pocket sized iM2 stereo mic for iPad / iPhone / iPod Touch. TASCAM’s iM2 turns the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch into a high-quality stereo recorder. A pair of condenser microphones – same high quality as TASCAM’s best-selling DR-series recorders – plugs into the dock connector of your Apple device. The microphones are adjustable over 180 degrees for optimal sound placement. The iM2 contains its own microphone preamp and analog-to-digital converter for low noise and premium audio quality. Unlike mics that use the built-in iPhone preamp, the iM2 can handle up to 125dB SPL sounds for the loudest concerts and instruments.

| Wire Rope Adds a Unique Twist To New Shure KSM353 Shock Mount
|
Shure Incorporated unveiled an innovative new shock mount for its KSM353 ribbon microphone that uses advanced materials and design to deliver excellent isolation with a refreshing dose of style. The accessory was shown at the recent Audio Engineering Society conference in New York.
More than 18 months in development, the mount had to provide exceptional isolation, securely mate to the microphone, and complement the simple metallic styling of the KSM353 ribbon microphone. The KSM353’s 1.5-pound weight and lack of a secure attachment point posed distinct challenges to achieving these goals.
