The MS-SPSM-1 is premium quality Omnidirectional stereo microphone that can be plugged directly into the mic input jack of your recorder and has no cables. It has an optional, removable, black lavaliere style clip available that can be used to attach the microphone to an article of clothing such as lapel or necktie or to any convenient mounting surface.
The microphone is very small measuring approximately 1.75″ long and 1.5″ wide. The upper portion of the microphone which houses the two microphone elements consists of high quality brass shell covered in black rubber, and is approximately 1/4″ in diameter. The vertical, lower portion of the mic which plugs into the recorder is spring loaded to help prevent excess wear and tear on your recorder’s input jacks. Removable premium black foam windscreens are provided at no additional cost.
In addition, there are several battery modules designed for this microphone that will give this microphone increased dynamic range and the ability to record loud sounds. More info on battery modules is located here.
General Information:
The Sound Professionals single point stereo microphones are small, stereo microphones that can be plugged into any recorder (DAT, MiniDisc or analog) that supplies bias voltage of between 1.5 and 10 Volts DC at the microphone input jack, commonly known as “plug in power”. Many of the recorders on the market today include this feature.
When connected to your recorder in this manner, these microphones are perfect for recording lectures, business meetings, and musical performances when an easy to setup and use microphone is required. For situations that do require wider stereo separation, we recommend the Mini Binaurals or Mini Cardioids.
