The TX-M2 uses a perfectly balanced wireless condenser microphone for singers, presenters, and reporters delivering crystal clear audio and incredibly low handling noise. Rode’s next generation digital wireless technology is hard at work here – constantly monitoring frequencies and automatically switch to the strongest possible signal level, so you are always given the best quality of sound.
