10 Shock-Mounted Gooseneck; Supercardiod; includes surface

Ideal Use Cases

The Shure MX410/S is intended for installations that specifically call for a compact modular gooseneck microphone with a 10-inch (25.4 cm) length and supercardioid capsule. Its listed shock-mounted format and surface-integration context make it a practical match for microphone positions built around compatible MX410 mounting hardware. It also fits systems where the microphone must be paired with a desktop or wireless desktop base rather than treated as a single-format microphone. The available integration paths support MX410 use across desktop, surface-mount, and wireless desktop configurations.

Why Choose This Model

This model brings together three clearly defined selection points: 10-inch length, supercardioid capsule, and the Microflex modular platform. That makes the MX410/S straightforward to specify when a project already requires those attributes. The /S configuration identifies supercardioid pickup, while the broader MX410 range also lists cardioid and no-capsule options. Shure identifies several purpose-specific integration components for MX405 and MX410 microphones, allowing the microphone to be planned around the installation format already in use.

Installation and Integration

The MX410 platform lists the MX400DP Desktop Base for MX405 and MX410 models and the MX400SMP Surface Mount Preamp for the same two microphone families. For wireless desktop use, Shure lists the MX890 for MX405 and MX410, while MXW8 and ULXD8 wireless desktop bases support MX405, MX410, and MX415. The supplied product title lists this MX410/S configuration with shock mounting and surface integration. Each installation can therefore be matched to the named desktop, wireless desktop, or surface-mount path required by the project. This modular compatibility also supports planning multiple microphone positions around a consistent family of bases.

Performance Highlights

The defining specifications supplied for this SKU are its supercardioid capsule, 10-inch length, and modular gooseneck format. The documented metric length is 25.4 cm. MX410 status-indicator configurations are available with either a bi-color LED at the bottom of the gooseneck or a red light ring at the top. These placements provide two clearly identified visual indicator formats within the MX410 family. The supplied data does not assign one of those indicator formats specifically to the MX410/S SKU, so no single indicator style is promised for this configuration.

What Makes It Different

The MX410/S differs from a microphone tied to one base format through its documented modular compatibility. The available choices cover the MX400DP desktop base, MX400SMP surface-mount preamp, and three named wireless desktop bases: MX890, MXW8, and ULXD8. Compatibility is not identical across every component. MX400DP, MX400SMP, and MX890 are listed for MX405 and MX410 models, while MXW8 and ULXD8 also support MX415. This configuration is further differentiated within the MX410 capsule choices by its supercardioid designation. Together, the variant name and compatibility list provide concrete information for matching the microphone, capsule, base, and mounting approach.

Final Assessment

Choose the Shure MX410/S when the required combination is a Microflex 10-inch modular gooseneck, supercardioid capsule, shock-mounted format, and surface-oriented installation. Its strongest documented advantage is configuration flexibility: the MX410 microphone family can interface with named desktop, surface-mount, and wireless desktop products. This SKU is particularly straightforward for systems already using MX410-compatible Shure bases. For ordering accuracy, the 10-inch length, supercardioid designation, shock-mounted format, and compatibility list are the confirmed specifications; the exact indicator style is not identified for this SKU in the supplied data.
