HotShot 48V™ User Guide

OVERVIEW

The HotShot 48V is a condenser microphone switcher built for silent operation on stage, allowing an 

artist to power their vocal mic and reroute it to feed the stage monitoring system for communicating 

with other band members or technicians at the press of a footswitch. To ensure a seamless 

performance, the HotShot 48V features an isolation transformer on the XLR input along with a 

time delay microcontroller for completely noiseless switching with no pops or clicks through the PA. 

LED indicators display the active output, and the footswitch itself can be configured for latching or 

momentary action.
