Microtech Gefell was able to announce the successful realization of a major order of a special kind in the six-figure euro range.
The newly developed microphones MKM 403, which were gold-plated at the customer's request, are being used as part of a major project to renovate existing audio systems in Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.
A particular challenge was to develop a microphone that could take over the function of three of the microphones previously used on site in one mic

Only one microphone is in operation in the MKM 403, with two more serving as a backup. In addition, a miniature loudspeaker is integrated, which plays a test tone that is imperceptible to the human ear, which the three built-in microphones pick up and transmit to the audio system. If one microphone path is disturbed, the system switches to the next one.
