A mic switcher for seamless stage communication control.
The Radial Engineering HOTSHOT MD dynamic mic switcher gives live performers and music directors fast, silent mic routing on stage. Built from heavy-duty 14-gauge steel, the switcher is made for tour use and features a 100% passive circuit design—so no external power or batteries are needed. A locking XLR input connects your dynamic microphone. Three XLR outputs (A, B and C) let you switch your mic signal to the front of house, monitor world or a private tech channel. When no footswitch is pressed, your mic signal travels to Output A for normal PA use. Press either Output B or C footswitch, and signal instantly reroutes—silently and without clicks—so you can cue bandmates or talk to engineers without the crowd hearing.
Radial Switcher Enhances Live Stage Communication
Engineers, bandleaders and techs use this switcher to manage live cues and off-stage instructions without disrupting performances. Its momentary footswitch design keeps transitions smooth. The ground lift switches on Outputs B and C reduce the risk of hum or noise when used with complex stage setups. Because the HOTSHOT MD dynamic mic switcher keeps the main vocal channel pristine and doesn't introduce power-supply hum, vocal clarity remains high. Quick, reliable mic routing helps artists and crews keep concerts running smoothly, allowing every musician to focus on the show instead of worrying about backstage chatter leaking into the PA.
Features
- XLR Output-A sends vocal mic signal to PA or monitors
- Output-B footswitch mutes PA and redirects signal to band members
- Output-C footswitch mutes PA and sends signal to tech crew
- Press both footswitches to communicate with band and techs simultaneously
- Ground lift switches eliminate hum when connecting to multiple locations
- Heavy-duty steel enclosure withstands rigorous touring and stage use
- Passive design works without external power, simplifying stage setups
- Noise-free switching prevents clicks and pops during live performances
Streamline stage communication with the Radial Engineering HOTSHOT MD Dynamic Mic Switcher— so you can toggle seamlessly between performance and coordination without disrupting the audience experience.
