The Audio-Technica ES964 Tri-Capsule Steerable Tabletop Microphone Array is a tri-capsule steerable microphone system featuring integrated touch controls and optimized compatibility with ATDM-0604a, ATDM-1012, and other open architecture DSPs.
The Audio-Technica ES964 Tri-Capsule Steerable Tabletop Microphone Array is a compact boundary microphone solution engineered for high-quality audio capture in multi-person conference environments. This steerable array provides clear, natural sound for small-group online meetings and permanent corporate conference spaces while maintaining a minimal tabletop footprint. This TAA-compliant device serves businesses looking to install or expand shared communication areas with a low-profile, professional audio solution.
The ES964 utilizes a specialized internal configuration consisting of one omnidirectional capsule and two bidirectional capsules. When integrated with Audio-Technica Digital SmartMixers or open-architecture DSPs, these capsules matrix to create discrete 360-degree hypercardioid and cardioid polar patterns. This steerable technology allows for simultaneous and precise pickup of all participants seated around the table, ensuring optimal audio environments for every call.
This microphone array features three separate touch-sensitive buttons positioned for easy access by multiple participants from various seating positions. These controls allow users to mute audio or trigger logic points directly from the device. A multi-color LED ring provides immediate visual feedback on the microphone’s ON/OFF/MUTE status. The LED ring is visible from any direction and offers seven customizable colors to align with specific office aesthetics or corporate branding requirements.
With a diameter of 88 mm (3.5″) and a height of 22 mm (0.87″), the space-saving design ensures the ES964 does not obstruct the workspace or line of sight. To maintain signal integrity in modern office environments, the unit incorporates proprietary shielding technology. This specialized shielding protects audio signals from radio frequency interference (RFI) caused by nearby electronic devices.
The ES964 is compatible with 20 to 52 V DC phantom power supplies and integrates seamlessly with the ATDM Series Digital SmartMixer. For physical installation, the unit can be secured to a table using a dedicated 20 mm (0.79″) jig in a 30 mm (1.2″) diameter hole or standard M3 screws.
