Overview

Beamforming Microphone Array 2

ClearOne’s second-generation Beamforming Mic Array is the professional-grade microphone array with beamforming and adaptive steering, ClearOne’s next-generation Acoustic Echo Cancellation and Noise Cancellation. The ultra-sleek design fits into any conferencing environment and delivers the clearest audio pickup available with its Acoustic Intelligence.

This solution works with CONVERGE Pro 2 DSP mixers through native P-link connection and it can connect with other P-link units like the DIALOG 20 2-channel Wireless Mic System.
