The cocoa Countryman E6X Omnidirectional Earset Mic, Standard Gain with Detachable 1mm Cable and 3.5mm locking Connector for Olympus, Roland, Sony, Tascam, Yamaha, or Zoom Portable Recorders is a versatile blend of the E6 and the E6i earset that features a springy, thin earpiece and a flexible boom and is suitable for use when a few people will be using the same mic.

The E6X earset can be used on either ear for capturing audio and rejecting unwanted sound, feedback, or surrounding noise from stage monitors or nearby speakers in houses of worship, theater, and outdoor vocal and speech applications.

The low-profile, omnidirectional E6X earset virtually disappears against the skin, so performers will forget they're wearing a mic. This version offers the highest gain for general speaking such as presentations or sermons. In addition, the earset comes with three protective caps with different high-frequency response characteristics that control the amount of crispness or sibilance (response at 15 kHz). This omnidirectional E6X earset's cable terminates to a 3.5mm locking connector for direct connection to Olympus, Roland, Sony, Tascam, Yamaha, or Zoom DM-420, DM-520, DM-620, DS-2400, DS-40, DS-51, DS-61, DS-71, LS-10, LS-14, R05, R09HR, PCM-D50, PCM-M10, DR-05, DR-07mkII, DR-08, PR-10, Pocketrak C24, Pocketrak W24, H1, H2, and H2n portable recorders.

The Countryman earsets are very small, lightweight, and the least visible headworn microphones.

The E6 Flex or E6X offers a versatile blend of the E6 and the E6i. With a springy, thin earpiece and a flexible boom, the E6 Flex is secure on the ear and fast to fit without compromising true invisibility and sound.

The E6X's stainless steel boom is tough and can be bent and re-bent to fit different performers. It is highly resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps. The earset should always have a protective cap in place to keep sweat, makeup, and other foreign material out of the microphone.

The E6X earset's flexible boom is easily shaped right on the performer's face. Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. This omnidirectional version includes three protective caps—+4 dB (bright), +8 dB (very bright) and +0 dB (flat)—that controls the amount of crispness or sibilance (response at 15 kHz.)

Easy adjustment keeps the mic in a comfortable position for rejecting unwanted sounds. The omnidirectional E6X earset provides more isolation and is suitable for situations where there are loud monitors, extreme feedback, or environmental noise.

The included removable, quick-swap cable detaches from the actual earset, making it completely replaceable in the event of a short or break. The replaceable cable design makes upgrading wireless microphone systems easy as they are available in a wide selection of connections to accommodate most wireless transmitters.

Q: 1. In the pix, it only shows 5 inputs' levels. Can we monitor all 8 inputs' levels simultaneously? It's critical to see all levels

A: Yes. When using the Level Meter View Screen on the Zoom R20 Portable Multitrack Recorder, it is possible to monitor the audio level meters and faders for all 16 tracks.

Q: 2. I've bought this oneWhat is required for live streaming on youtube and others.I have 2 cameras sony nx - 100roland V1HDAtomos Ninja Bladewhether they require additional other devices ?

A: You still need a way to send everything to your CDN (which can be LiveStream, uStream, FaceBook, etc). I used the Blackmagic Mini Recorder and my MacBookPro running Wirecast. You can also use something like the Matrox Monarch HD. Either way, you need something that will take the audio/video from your switcher (HDMI) to your internet broadcast service.

Q: 3. Is it possible to run this unit from battery power?

A: This unit works with AC power. You could look in to a portable power pack with a standard US 110VAC Wall outlet.

Q: 4. Is it possible to have 2 HDMI sources going into the V-1HD (1. Camera 2. Laptop Computer Screen Slide Presentation) and going out to my computer using OBS software to create a SPLIT SCREEN final recorded program? In other words, will the V-1HD Switcher allow me to send two sources as one Split Screen program to my computer?

A: The V-1HD does have split screen and picture-in-picture capabilities. However to bring the feed in to your computer for use with OBS you will need a capture device. The Magewell USB Capture HDMI Gen 2 is a great choice for this, it is compatible with OBS. https://bhpho.to/2n9v5B3

Q: 5. I wish that the switcher had a designated Black button. How do you users feel about the twist to black set up? And WHY a twist to white ????

A: I agree, a rotary knob to fade to black (or white) on a HD switcher does not seem quite right. What I have done is mix to any unused input, which gives a nice smooth fade to a very solid black. Of course, if all 4 inputs are in use the only option is the knob.

Q: 6. I am looking to purchase this for a school TV studio. We will go live using a Box Caster. Will I still need an encoder like the one paired with the Roland V-1HD? (Matrox Encoder)

A: You will need an encoder.

Q: 7. Two questions about the V1HD switcher...1) When would you ever use the freeze button on this thing? I'm trying to figure out what it does and why it has it's own button? And also, can it be changed to do something else?2) Can the PREVIEW output be changed somehow to just show the Preview clip? In other words, I know it is used to show the multi view, but can that be switched somehow to show something else like the Preview clip (for instance if I wanted to check focus on one particular camera before I cut to it), while the Program/OUTPUT has the main live feed output like normal?Thanks!

A: The freeze button is a common thing found on a production switcher. You may want to freeze on a moment and from there switch to a live feed, even the same camera now rolling live again. It is an effect that you may find useful. The button cannot be programmed to something else I'm afraid. The preview HDMI output can be set to either the Multi-viewer or a 2nd output for the program. It cannot be set as an ISO on a specific camera. The V1HD is designed to be a more basic, yet affordable option. You could look in to a more advanced switcher like the Datavideo SE-2200 that has multiple, assignable outputs. The SE-2200 will allow you to have a preview out.

Q: 8. Are the faders motorized?

A: The Zoom R20 faders are not motorized.

Q: 9. Does this unit have a still store? How about fan noise, is there any?

A: The V-1HD does not have a still store feature. There is a fan but reportedly it is so quiet, mics do not hear it.

Q: 10. what connector is needed to hook up my cameras to the switcher? I have Panasonic AG AC 8 cameras.

A: HDMI (Type A Full size)
