The next generation in Binaural In-ear microphones have 22dB less noise (hiss), 18dB more sensitivity and 10dB higher max SPL than our standard model. This means that your recording will have noticeably less background hiss and greater dynamic range than previously possible with in-ear binaural microphones! Compare these to the best omnidirectional microphones anywhere and you will see why these offer the highest level performance at fraction of the cost of other similar mics.
The MS-TFB-2-MKII Sound Professionals In-Ear Binaural microphones are mounted in extremely comfortable super-soft, In-Ear holders that slip right into the ear structure. Why put microphone here you ask?
Pretty simple, really. There have been many ‘binaural’ microphone designs over the years…….mics built into fake heads, built into Croakies, made with clips for attaching to glasses, built into headphones and earbuds.
All of these have one flaw……none actually put the mic element in the best possible place for the most realistic recording within the Pinna (the part of the human ear that is visible the folds on the outside). Even earbud Binaurals have the mic element outside the Pinna. Because everyone’s Pinna is unique, recording made in your own ears will sound the most realistic.
These mics put the mic element right next to the ear canal, well within the Pinna. This results in the most realistic recording possible, from the perspective of the person wearing them.
Because of their larger size, while recording, your hearing is somewhat impaired. If you need to enjoy the sound you are hearing while making the recording, The 59″ cables terminate in a stereo 1/8″ (3.5mm) gold-plated miniplug or XLR connectors (for devices with phantom power).
Note: When selecting the XLR connectors, please note that we must use very thin, flexible Mogami cable with the XLR option. While this is the very best, small diameter cable made, it does tend to tangle more easily than other types. Take care when wrapping your cables to avoid tangling.
