E-V RE410 HANDHELD CONDENSER MIC
New from Electro-Voice (www.electrovoice.com) is the RE410, a handheld condenser mic for lead vocal applications. The RE410 has a uniform cardioid pickup pattern for feedback rejection and isolation from loud onstage sources; specs include a 50-20k Hz response and 140dB maximum SPL handling. A multistage pop filter reduces plosives and breath noise, while a Memraflex™ hardened steel grille offers protection, and a Warm-Grip™ handle provides a comfortable feel and isolates handling noise.

QSC DIGITAL CINEMA SPEAKER SERIES
QSC (www.qscaudio.com) expands its series of bi/tri-ampable screen channel loudspeakers to a total of nine units, ranging from the compact SC-413 to the flagship SC-443, with its 4×15 bottom end and proprietary MH-1075 mid-high section. All mid-high sections feature a horn-loaded midrange topped by a titanium-diaphragm compression driver coupled with an adjustable pan-and-tilt bracket. With nominal coverage rated at 90° horizontal (+20°/-30°) in the vertical plane, each is outfitted with its own driver-protection network and a passive crossover for bi-amp use, and also facilitates high-frequency crossover points of up to 1,800 Hz to ensure that most dialog is reproduced by a single element for added intelligibility. LF in the three new units uses QSC's Close-Coupled Woofer (CCW) technology, which keeps coverage angles considerably wider over a greater frequency range than traditional devices employing widely spaced woofers.

Building on the reputation of Peavey's renowned CS 800, the new series features DDT® compression/anti-clipping protection, two-rackspace designs and up to 4,080 watts.

The AQ Series from Martin Audio (www.martin-audio.com) comprises six full-range enclosures ranging from the ultra-compact dual 5-inch ICT™ AQ5 to the high-power AQ15 (400W. 15-inch woofer/high-efficiency HF compression driver).
