When you need paging to be clean, quick, and consistent, the microphone matters more than people think. The Pure Resonance Audio PTT1 is a desktop paging microphone designed for day-to-day public address use, so it fits naturally at a front desk, reception counter, school office, warehouse station, security desk, or any place where announcements and communication are part of the workflow.
The PTT1 uses a dynamic unidirectional microphone element, which is a practical choice for paging. Unidirectional pickup helps focus on the talker and reduce room noise, while a dynamic capsule is known for durability and handling higher sound levels without sounding harsh. The gooseneck lets you quickly position the mic for different users, then leave it in place.
Control is simple and intentional. The push-to-talk function prevents accidental hot mics, and the dual momentary locking switch gives you flexibility depending on how your staff prefers to operate. For many environments, that means fewer mistakes, clearer messaging, and a more professional “always on point” sound.
Connection is straightforward with a 3-pin male XLR connector and an included 5 ft cable, making it easy to tie into a paging mixer, rack mount mixer amplifier, or commercial PA system. Set it up once, and it becomes one of those pieces that quietly does its job every day.
If you are looking for a push-to-talk paging microphone, desktop PA microphone, or XLR paging mic for a commercial audio system, the PTT1 is a clean, reliable choice.
