The PC Boundary mic is a low profile microphone that can be used with standard and automatic mic mixers. The PC
Boundary mic is a member of the EV PolarChoice™ series of multi-pattern microphones. The multi-pattern versatility
of the PolarChoice™ microphone makes it a true “problem solver”. With one non-directional and three directional
polar patterns available, PolarChoice™ microphones are ideal for virtually any installation. Of particular interest is the
figure 8 pattern that allows miking people on opposite sides of a table with only one microphone, while providing a
dramatic reduction of ambient room noise.
The PC Boundary mic features a large soft-touch mute button. The mute button can be configured for push-on /
pushoff, push-to-talk, or push-to-mute functions. Mute switch programming is easily accomplished without
disassembling the microphone. The microphone can also be programmed to be either live or muted when power is
initially applied (when in toggle mode). Additionally, a switch on the bottom of the mic, quickly converts the PC
Boundary to automatic mixer mode. In this mode, audio is always on.
A large blue LED indicator lights when the mic is active, and can be remotely controlled when the mic is in automatic
mixer mode.
The PC Boundary mic is designed to take acoustic advantage of placing a microphone close to a “boundary” such as
conference table. Advantages include reduced phase cancellation and up to 3dB reduction in ambient noise.
The PC Boundary mic also includes a switchable high pass filter and a high-performance vibration-damping pad on
the bottom to greatly reduce any vibration induced noise pick-up.
