D'Addario Micro Mute Sensor Vocal Dynamic Microphone

The D’Addario Infrared Mic Sensor is a smart in-line device that acts like a hands-free noise gate for your microphone. It automatically mutes the mic when you step away and instantly reactivates when you return. Designed for both performers and speakers, it prevents feedback, background noise, and unwanted stage bleed, keeping your sound clear and professional.

It connects directly into any standard XLR microphone setup and is powered entirely by phantom power, so no batteries are required. The infrared sensor detects presence up to about 60 cm (24 inches) in front of the mic, responding naturally to real use on stage, in theaters, houses of worship, or presentations.

Compact, reliable, and intuitive, this accessory makes microphone management seamless—letting you focus on the performance instead of the gear.
