First Claim
1. A modified handheld wireless vocal microphone, comprising:
- A modified handheld wireless vocal microphone independent of the need for connection to any external signal processing equipment;
a central section, having an on/off control switch, a series of knobs or dials in direct vertical order of each other, for providing an area of control, connected to said modified handheld wireless microphone.a first control area, for providing a means of automatically corrects or tune pitches of a vocalist that are slightly sharp or flat during a live performance or recording session in real time or recording session without connection to external signal processing equipment designated for such means, juxtaposed to said central area;
a second control area, for providing means for built-in/internal digital signal processor (DSP) using various signal processing algorithms in order to create the reverb effect and to control of the amount of reverb added to or removed from a vocalist during a live performance or recording session in real time or recording session without connection to external signal processing equipment designated for such means, juxtaposed to said central area;
a third control area, for built-in/internal reduction of excess sibilance (“
ess” and
“
shh”
sounds) from a vocalist during a live performance or recording session in real time without connection to external signal processing equipment, juxtaposed to said central area;
a fourth control area, for built in/internal automatic volume control that reduces the gain (level) of a vocalist during a live performance or recording session if the amplitude of the vocal signal exceeds a certain threshold in real time without connection to external signal processing equipment designated for such means, juxtaposed to said central area.

Abstract
A series of signal processing features incorporated into its design that is both functional and decorative, to enhance convenience and performance among vocalists. A hollow, cylinder shaped body is oriented lie a conventional microphone, featuring a cardioid pickup pattern and a dynamic diaphragm, as well as a three-pin/XLR connector, a grill, and an integral pop filter. A transmitter handling the conversion of the audio signal into a radio signal and broadcasts it through an antenna, is built into the handle of the microphone, resulting in a wireless microphone that is slightly larger than a standard wired microphone. The microphone also has a shock-absorption system that reduces noise while the microphone is being handled buy the vocalist during a performance.
