D'Addario Mic Mute Infrared Sensor - Handsfree Noise Gate | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The D'Addario Mic Mute Infrared Mic Sensor is a hands-free noise gate and mute sensor that automatically silences your microphone the moment you step away from it. Using an onboard infrared sensor, it detects the presence of a speaker and cuts the mic signal when no one is in range — eliminating feedback and background noise without any manual intervention. Whether you're performing live, delivering a speech, or tracking in the studio, the Mic Mute keeps your signal clean and professional from the first note to the last.
Product Overview
The D'Addario Mic Mute uses infrared sensor technology to continuously monitor whether a speaker is present at the microphone. When no presence is detected, the unit automatically mutes the signal — preventing the feedback loops and ambient noise bleed that plague live performances and recording sessions alike. It's a passive, always-on solution that works silently in the background so you can focus on your performance.
Installation is straightforward: simply connect any compatible XLR microphone to the single XLR input, run your XLR output to your mixer, PA, or audio interface as normal, and power the unit via 48V phantom power from your mixing board or preamp. There are no complex settings to configure — it integrates seamlessly into any phantom-powered XLR signal chain.
From church services and public speaking engagements to live music and studio recording, the Mic Mute is built to perform in any environment where microphone feedback or noise bleed is a concern. Guitarists, vocalists, and audio engineers at No Limit Guitar Co in Idaho Falls will find this a reliable, low-profile tool that solves a real-world problem with elegant simplicity.
