A Cardioid Lavalier with an Interchangeable Capsule Design

Cardioid Polar Pattern

The mic's cardioid polar pattern picks up sound in front of the capsule at a 130° angle for less background sound and reduced feedback from monitors and sound reinforcement equipment.

Replaceable Mic Capsule

The modular design allows you to replace the WL185 cardioid capsule with a WL184 supercardioid or WL183 omnidirectional capsule (both available separately) if the application requires it.

Headroom for Standard Vocal Applications

The WL185 is designed to handle up to 130.5 dB SPL without distorting, providing headroom for broadcast-quality interviews, speech, and dialog.

Frequency Response Tailored for Speech

With a frequency range from 50 Hz to 17 kHz, the mic filters out unnecessary high and low frequencies for accurate and transparent speech reproduction.
