## Overview

The Optogate PB-05D is a state-of-the-art optical mic gate that automatically switches on and off, ensuring pristine audio quality. Made in Germany with high-quality aluminum, this lightweight device (60 g) features a compact design (14.9 x 8.2 x 2.6 cm) that fits seamlessly into any professional audio setup.

## Description

The PB-05 is an automatic microphone switch with an optical distance sensor. The device is simply plugged between the microphone and cable. On the front there is an active infrared sensor. This sensor "detects" when someone is in front of the microphone and turns on the microphone without switching noise. The microphone is automatically switched off when no one is in front of the microphone. A red status LED indicates the operating status of the optogate. The PB-05 works with 48V phantom power. Condenser microphones can also be operated without problems in conjunction with the PB-05. The phantom power is transmitted to the microphone. It eliminates unwanted background noise from instruments in unused microphones. The clarity and dynamics of the beneficial signal is significantly increased by lower phase extinguishments and overlays from other microphones. The PB-05 is available in 3 versions: the PB-05 M reduces the microphone level by approx. 42 dB, in the "mute" position. The PB-05 D reduces the level by -16 dB, which is sometimes more comfortable for in-ear applications. The new PB-05 E is a cheaper version designed for dynamic microphones. - Turns the microphone off via infrared sensor when not in use. - No false noise trigeration. - Simply adjust the distance - and you're done. - Eliminates unwanted scattering - Ideal for in-ear monitor applications and very loud stage environments - your sound will be better than ever before! Your system will sound better and have more "pressure". Your ears and the audience will thank you. - You don't want to work without Optogate anymore...
