A Lavalier Microphone Designed for Demanding Professional Environments
Originating from the professional wireless ecosystem, this lavalier microphone naturally integrates into broadcast and corporate workflows. Its miniature capsule and discreet format allow easy placement on clothing or instruments while maintaining a clean and stable soundstage. The lockable 3.5 mm Jack connector secures the connection during stage movements or filming.
For Whom and For What Uses
Presenters, speakers, stage managers, and acoustic musicians will appreciate its daily reliability. On TV sets, in conference rooms, or mobile recording situations, it ensures clear sound capture with minimal artifacts while remaining almost invisible on camera. Its compatibility with "evolution wireless" bodypack transmitters makes it a logical choice for existing setups.
Key Features Supporting Intelligibility
Very low self-modulation and controlled self-noise provide a clean signal, enhancing voice intelligibility and the precision of acoustic instrument timbres. Its resistance to acoustic feedback reduces the risk of Larsen effect in sound-reinforced environments or near stage monitors. Additionally, it can switch to wired configuration via the MZA 900 P preamplifier, convenient for shoots or conferences where absolute stability is required.
