Frequently Asked Questions
What instruments is the PGA98H designed for?
The Shure PGA98H is a clip-on condenser microphone designed for brass, woodwinds, drums, and other acoustic instruments. The gooseneck and clip allow precise positioning near the sound source.
What does the TQG connector mean?
TQG is a miniature connector used with Shure wireless bodypack transmitters. This mic is designed to be used wirelessly — you'll need a compatible Shure wireless system (like BLX, SLX, or ULXD series) to use it.
Can I plug this directly into a mixer or audio interface?
No. The TQG connector is for Shure wireless bodypacks only. If you need a wired version, look for the PGA98H-XLR model, which terminates in a standard XLR connector.
Does the clip damage the instrument?
No. The mounting clip is designed with instrument safety in mind — it attaches to bells, rims, and edges without scratching or marring the finish when used as intended.
Does this require phantom power?
When used with a Shure wireless bodypack, the mic receives power from the transmitter (bias voltage). No separate phantom power is needed.
