Description
Earthworks EA-20KHZ 20kHz Gooseneck Podium Microphones FM360, FM500, FMR500, FMR600 & FMR720
The Earthworks EA-20KHZ FlexMic Series podium microphones are designed for permanent installation in podiums and other surfaces for speech applications.
Performance
Whether it is a seasoned professional or a public speaking novice stepping up to the microphone, the FlexMic has you covered. Optimized for speech, the FlexMic microphones feature a flat frequency response out to 20kHz and excellent phase response that delivers the highest level of speech intelligibility and articulation.
The near-perfect polar response of the FlexMics provides incredible coverage and freedom of movement for the speaker. Whether speaking above, below or to either side of the microphone, every word will be reproduced with incredible clarity and intelligibility up to 90 degrees off-axis. This wider coverage also means that a single Earthworks microphones can be used to properly cover more than one speaker.
With 32dB or rear rejection, the FlexMic delivers more gain before feedback and exceptional isolation from unwanted sound sources.
Ideal for civic, corporate, court, government or worship spaces.
Construction
The FlexMic microphones feature 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.
Options
The FlexMic microphones are available in 13, 19, 23 and 27 inch lengths. Fully flexible and rigid center goosenecks are available. Available in cardioid or hypercardioid.
Always Covered
Whether it is a seasoned professional or a public speaking novice stepping up to the microphone, the FlexMic has you covered. Optimized for speech, the FlexMic microphones feature a flat frequency response out to 20kHz and excellent phase response that delivers the highest level of speech intelligibility and articulation.
Freedom of Movement
The near-perfect polar response of the FlexMics provides incredible coverage and freedom of movement for the speaker. Whether speaking above, below or to either side of the microphone, every word will be reproduced with incredible clarity and intelligibility up to 90 degrees off-axis.
Form Follows Function

Applications
– Conferencing / Installed Sound
Coverage Area
On a conventional microphone, the high frequency losses on the sides are also the same above and below the mic. So, when an orator speaks under the microphone there will be the same loss of high frequencies as on the sides of the microphone. Likewise, when the orator speaks above the microphone the same high frequency losses will also be present. To illustrate this, the figures on the left show a conventional microphones pickup area (with full frequency response) from above and from either side of a podium.
In contrast, the figures on the right show the pickup area (with full frequency response) of an Earthworks directional microphone, both above, and at the sides of a podium. Notice the dramatic increase of the coverage area providing the full frequency response of the microphone.

Testimonial
“The Flexmic’s near flawless reproduction of audio and extremely smooth frequency response on and off-axis allows more gain before feedback than other microphones I have used. I can get the level of audio I need from the FlexMics, even from people with poor microphone technique, without having to compromise the audio quality from excessive EQ to get rid of feedback.”
Chase Daigle, MSC Systems
“Speakers tend to shift from side to side when speaking, turn their heads, speak softly or too loud and back away from the mic. The FMR500 helps us to combat these issues. The response is consistent and clear during the entire presentation.”
Lennox Foster, Sound Media
