Whether it is a seasoned professional or a public speaking novice stepping up to the microphone, the Earthworks FM500 has you covered. Optimized for speech, the Earthworks FlexMic™ FM500 Microphone features a frequency response out to 20kHz and excellent phase response that delivers the highest level of speech intelligibility and articulation.

This wider coverage also means that a single Earthworks FM500 can be used to properly cover more than one speaker.
With 32dB or rear rejection, the Earthworks FM500 delivers more gain before feedback and exceptional isolation from unwanted sound sources. Ideal for civic, corporate, court, government or worship spaces.
Construction
The Earthworks FM500 Microphone features a slim yet sturdy 7mm gooseneck that stays put when adjusted, while providing low profile sightlines. The gooseneck utilizes the latest in flex materials to virtually eliminate handling and movement noise. A metal mesh windscreen coupled with layers of foam prevent the loud pop inducing bursts of stop consonants from reaching the microphone. For outdoor events, an additional foam windscreen accessory (FMW2) is available to help eliminate noise from high mph winds. Optional PMM1 permanent mount accessory available separately.
