Mini Jack Microphone Wiring

This microphone is a tiny lavaliere style designed to plug into a 1/8 mini jack with screw-down connection. It offers great sound quality and, despite its diminutive size, is pretty tough. It comes with several different end caps and a shirt clip. It also includes a nice zippered pouch to store the package. A bit expensive but worth it if you need a small, high-quality lavaliere that will stand up to daily production.

quality RCA to stereo mini jack cable.

The Olympus ME-52W Noise Cancellation Microphone adds further versatility to your Olympus Digital Recorder (A WS-321M in my case). The Microphone comes as part of a four piece kit that includes the microphone, a 1m long extension cable, a tie-clip style clothing clip and a foam wind screen that fits over the microphone. The microphone itself is hinged above the 'mic/input' jack on the top of the recorder where it can be adjusted horizontally by rotating it in the jack and vertically through using a hinge incorporated at the microphone's base. This external mic provides far superior clarity and range over the WS-321M built-in microphone! With the microphone inserted directly into the input jack it allows the user to hold the whole unit like a handle with the mic projected unimpeded out of the top. I found the mic very handy during news scrums and while taking personal notes as the risk of covering the recorder's built-in mic is eliminated. The tie-clip mic holder is useful mainly when recording a stationary subject or when recording yourself when you need your hands free. It's very straightforward to use and easy to remove the mic from it quickly. Lastly, the wind screen cap was also surprisingly useful. It really made a difference in sound clarity when recording in windy conditions and recording in a vehicle with the windows open or the top down. All in all this is a very inexpensive purchase considering the value and versatility it adds to your recorder. Really a 'must have' if you're serious about the recordings you make.

Wish I had found this earlier. Made my own with XLR and mini-jack... This is very well made and excellent value.

I use this cable to split the mini jack of my DSLR in two monos. Works great.

I tried the other mini jack mics. This one was the best. Make sure to get the sock. Makes the mic look cooler ;)

I can't say enough great things about this microphone. It's solid and heavy, which makes me feel good about a product. It connects without drivers (PC, possibly Mac, haven't tried) and should be a god send for Asio4all Driver users with one sound card on Win7. This solved a lot of problems as the Yeti is almost like having another soundcard due to the built-in drivers and built in headphone jack.Pro: Imagine listening to your melody or background music in your headphones (from the Yeti jack) and rapping or singing without feedback from the speakers. Probably the way you'd lay a vocal track down in a studio.Con: When my mouth is really close to the mic, it seems a bit unbalanced. When I get about a foot from the mic at center, it's balanced. I freaked out at first, but now I understand what it's doing. That shouldn't be a big deal and I don't see it as a reason to send it back. I still give it 5 stars.Bottom line, get this microphone.... You can not beat this deal as I've been telling co-workers that this has been the best investment that I've made in a long time. (Happiness to cost ratio)Seriously!

The cable that came with my RODE microphone is meant to plug into a camera. This adapter allows me to plug the microphone into a headset jack on my laptop (Surface Book 3). Works well

Is a great directional Microphone especially in nosier environments. The lightning jack is not very long and most iphone case users will find that they will either need to remove their cases or modify them.

As many of you know, the a6300 lacks a headphone jack. This cable does the trick by splitting the microphone jack into headphone and microphone, and works remarkably well. The only thing you should remember is that the recording device need to be self powered, otherwise this trick will not work.
