Standalone handheld format
Use the microphone as a self-contained handheld performance mic with built-in effects and sample triggering, without needing a separate processor for basic operation.
Overview
EP–2350 FX–MIC is a handheld performance microphone designed to add effects and sample triggering directly at the microphone. Teenage Engineering describes it as a standalone unit with built-in effects, four on-board samples, and a parameter modulation lever, aimed at vocal processing and live triggering without extra gear.
The product can be used on its own or connected to a K.O. II, and the guide says it can also connect to an audio mixer. Its workflow centers on replacing the four sample slots with your own sounds, switching among the built-in effect presets, and shaping the response live while performing.
Features
Four built-in effect presets
Choose from four onboard voice effects: echo, echo+spring, pixie, and robot.
Four sample slots with onboard storage
Load and trigger four replaceable samples directly from the microphone, with the guide stating 1 MB of sample storage.
Live performance controls
Shape the sound in real time using the parameter modulation lever and the handle position, which change effect behavior while performing.
Custom effect preset workflow
Build custom effect presets with a simple JSON file, allowing the device to store user-defined effect settings.
Analog output and dual power options
Connect by 3.5 mm line out with a curly cable, and power the unit with 2x AAA batteries or USB-C.
Use Cases
Live vocal processing
For vocal performers who want to add character live, the microphone lets you switch effect presets and move the modulation lever while singing or speaking.
Triggering one-shots from the mic
For sample-based performances, you can load sounds into the four sample slots and trigger them from the microphone itself during a set.
Portable performance rig
For users building a portable setup, the unit can be powered by batteries or USB-C and connected by line out to a broader audio chain.
Paired with K.O. II
For K.O. II owners, the product is positioned as something you can hook up directly to the device as part of a combined performance workflow.
Custom effect preset creation
For users who want customized sound design, the guide supports making effect presets from a simple JSON file rather than relying only on the factory sounds.
