Shure TwinPlex TL48 XLR Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone (Black)

The Shure TL48B/O-XLR-A is a lavalier microphone that offers an omnidirectional pickup pattern and an ultralight build, giving performers and engineers a tool that stays out of sight while keeping speech crystal clear. Whether the mic is hidden in a theater costume, clipped to a news anchor’s lapel, or taped under an actor’s clothing on a film set, it preserves vocal detail and stays consistent even when the talent turns or moves.

A dual-diaphragm capsule sits at the heart of the design, capturing the full dynamic range of the human voice without sounding harsh or dull. The included paintable cap produces a gentle midrange lift that helps dialogue cut through ambient noise, so words remain intelligible in bustling studios or busy outdoor locations.

Production days can be long and conditions unpredictable, so Shure built in defenses against common hazards. An internal hydrophobic layer repels sweat, humidity, and light rain, while the 1.6 mm cable resists kinks yet stays flexible enough to route through wardrobe or around set pieces. The cable jacket accepts paint and fabric dye, making it easy to blend the mic into costumes or props.

The fixed XLR connector with an integrated preamp plugs straight into professional mixers, recorders, or wireless transmitters that use standard microphone inputs. A comprehensive accessory kit—mounts, clips, wind protection, and more—helps crews position the capsule securely in almost any situation, saving valuable setup time.

From scripted dramas to live panel discussions, the TwinPlex TL48 delivers the clarity audiences expect and the reliability crews need, all in a form factor small enough to disappear from view.
