Exceptional RF Protection

Additionally its extensive use of aluminium throughout its construction delivers exceptional RF protection, eliminating noise and interference caused by everyday devices such as WiFi routers, UHF signals from wireless triggers and more.

Electronic Switching

The rear of the mic features electronic switches with excellent tactile feel to ensure settings on the microphone are not changed accidently or the mic is not inadvertently powered on or off whilst shooting.

Customisable Audio Control

The available adjustment options on the rear of the mic include a -10dB to +20dB pad to reduce potential distortion in extremely loud or soft scenarios. Additionally a 75Hz or 150Hz filter can be utilised to minimise low-frequencies such as wind or emphasise speech in low-frequency shooting situations. Lastly a +6dB Shelf can be used to eliminate the negative effects of using a windsock or wind shield.

Two Windshields Included

Made from low-density foam, the shield eliminates noise generated from movement such as fast tilting or panning. When shooting outdoors, the furry windshield is recommended. the high density fur markedly reduces wind noise while a silicone membrane at the back of the furry provides protection from the rear.

Connectivity to you camera can be accomplished via a included SC2 3.5mm microphone patch cable. For professional cameras two mini-XLR terminals can be used to output a balanced, noise-free signal into your cameras XLR input. Additionally, the 3.5mm and XLR terminals can be used at the same time to cater for the use of multiple simultaneous recording devices.
