Frequently asked questions
What type of microphone does each product work with?
The MPA V L is specifically designed for L-type AKG MicroMic lavalier microphones and outputs to standard 3-pin XLR. The ST45 is a passive stand that accepts any microphone via standard 3/8" thread adapters, making it microphone-agnostic.
Can I use these together?
Technically yes—the MPA V L outputs standard 3-pin XLR, which can connect to a preamp or mixer, while the ST45 provides a mount for a microphone body. However, they serve different roles: the MPA V L powers a lavalier mic, while the ST45 holds a microphone at a fixed position.
Which is better for broadcast or mobile recording?
The MPA V L is designed specifically for broadcast and mobile work, with a lightweight build and 50 cm cable for portable rigs. The ST45 suits stationary or semi-portable setups where a stable tabletop position is needed.
Do I need both products?
No—they address different needs. Choose the MPA V L only if you own an AKG L-type MicroMic that requires phantom power. Choose the ST45 only if you need a microphone stand. You need only the product that matches your specific setup.
