Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can this be used with a regular recorder (with a 1/8 microphone jack) instead of a smartphone (i.e. Olympus Ws-852)?

A: It does with the Rhode adapter. Also, this mic requires power. It did not work immediately with my digital recorder, which is a Roland R-05, as I expected. Upon further examination I realized there was a setting to send power to the mic and it worked like a charm.

Q: 2. The question isn't why are 2 mics more expensive than 1, it is why is there a $100 premium over buying 2 separately. Is it because they are 'matched'?

A: The difference in cost between purchasing two Rode NT55 Compact Condenser Microphones with Interchangeable Capsules as opposed to the Matched Pair item can indeed be credited to the fact that the pair is matched, making them more ideal for recording as a stereo pair.

Q: 3. If I bought a splitter and plugged two of these in would my iPhone record the audio from both?

A: Into one channel yes. The RDE SC6 is the adaptor we make that gives you two inputs and also a headphone out for using the smartlav.

Q: 8. I recently purchased the SONY PXW-X70 PROFESSIONAL XDCAM CAMCORDER. It comes with an XLR handle with microphone holder, but no mic. Is this the right one to pair with it? Are there other (better) options? I want to outfit the camera right. Thanks. I am referring to the Sony ECM-MS2 Stereo Electret Condenser Microphone BTW.

A: The correct mic for your PXW-X70 would depend on your application. The ECM-MS2 is a stereo mic. It is compatible with your camera, and great for recording audio such as general ambience, music and situations where left/right positional information is required. For interview and speech recording in front of the camera many prefer a mono shotgun mic such as the Rode NTG-1 due to its tighter pickup pattern and minimal off axis pickup. a href= http://bhpho.to/1hg4l94 target= _blank http://bhpho.to/1hg4l94/a
