Countryman E6s Omnidirectional Earset Microphone For Specific Electro-voice Transmitters (high Gain, Cocoa)
- Product Code: ga211274
-
The Countryman E6s Omnidirectional Microphone is a miniature earset microphone for virtually invisible operation. The compact size and placement just in front of the ear make this microphone particularly well-suited for intimate theater and broadcast applications, or any use where low mic visibility is a key factor.
The omnidirectional pickup pattern provides a generous and forgiving pickup area around the perimeter of the capsule, while the stainless steel construction stands up to daily use, makeup, and sweat. The mic also comes with 3 different interchangeable caps that let you choose between a flat, bright, or very bright frequency response.
This version of the E6s is cocoa and comes with a 1mm diameter cable. It terminates to a Switchcraft TA4-F connector for use with specific* Electro-Voice wireless transmitters.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. When do you expect to ship these?
A: The Rode NTG4+ is currently available and shipping.
Q: 2. Does this have built in isolation to eliminate handling noise?
A: Yes it does. All interview microphones have some type of shock mount in the handle to reduce handling noise when out in the field. Some are better than others.
Q: 3. Will this work on the new Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K?
A: Yes it does work all you need is this adapter in the link bellow https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1537929-REG/kondor_blue_kb_mxlr_16_mini_xlr_male_to.html
Q: 4. Which is the best option between the 3? NTG2, NTG4 or Sennheiser MKE 600
A: Having owned the NTG2, NTG4+, and used the NTG3 quite a bit, I can tell you they are very different microphones. If you can afford the NTG3 it will give you the most sensitivity. Too much at times. The NTG2 is inexpensive and can hold a AA battery for phantom power, but has no off switch. This is why I purchased the NTG4+. The internal battery lasts a full day and can be turned off when not in use. I like Sennheiser, but have not owned a shotgun from them, so can not offer an honest opinion.
Q: 5. I have a Panasonic AG-UX180 professional camcorder. It has XLR input. I use this camera to record RC Airplane flight. Even though shotgun mics are designed for close-up audio, will this shotgun also work for distance airplane sound? If not, please recommend something in a similar price range that would work better. THANKS!
A: You would be better off with a longer shotgun mic for recording anything at a distance. The narrower audio spectrum highly increases the directional capability, therefore, decreasing unwanted peripheral sounds. In the low price range, you could consider the Audio Technica AT8015 US$299.00.
Q: 6. When I have the microphone plugged into my H4n, I have to turn the audio in the H4n almost all the way up, which sounds terrible because of the white noise. I have to do the same thing when I have it plugged into my DSLR. Is there something I'm doing wrong here? People have been saying this mic sounds great, but I'm not getting that. It sounds like a $60 mic for me.
A: Hi Cody. Are you using 48v phantom power from your Zoom or are you using the built in battery of the mic? I would suggest NOT using the -10db pad on the mic to ensure you are sending out the best signal from the mic to your device. If you still cannot get a decent level please send us an enquiry at a href= http://rode.com/contact target= _blank rode.com/contact/a and we can help further.
Q: 7. Can this be charged from a MacBook Pro USB-C charger?
A: You cannot charge the IDX System Technology DUO-C150P 145Wh High-Load Li-Ion V-Mount Battery from a USB-C charger. There is not enough power. Use a proper charger like this.IDX System Technology D-Tap Advanced Port Battery Charger BH #IDVLDT1 • MFR #VL-DT1
Q: 8. Would this mic work with my Sony adapter for my A7s? It has an xlr in??
A: The NTG4+ will work with an XLR adapter that is able to provide 48 volts phantom power to the mic.
Q: 9. 1) Can i connect NTG4+ to my rodelink filmmaker wireless transmitter?2) When connected directly to a sony a7r3 camera, will it sound good? or Preamp/external recorder is a must?
A: The 4+ supplies its own power, so if the rodelink receiver is plugged into the camera, plugging the mic directly into the camera will make absolutely no difference. The only benefit of using the transmitter would be to get the mic closer to the audio source. But that doesn't seem to apply here.
Q: 10. I am looking to use this with a Saramonic SmartRig with a TRRS to TRS adapter to avoid buying the Sony XLR-K2M. Will it work?
A: The RODE NTG4+ Shotgun Microphone is compatible for use with the Saramonic SmartRig+ 2-Channel XLR Microphone Audio Mixer with the 3.5mm TRRS connector. It may also be compatible for connection to the 3.5mm TRS mic input on your DSLR or mirrorless camera. If you are only going to use the NTG4+ mic with your camera, you can connect the mic directly to the camera's 3.5mm mic input. Power the mic with its internal battery and use a cable with XLR female and 3.5mm TRS male connectors like the Kopul XRSM 3-Pin XLR Female to 3.5mm RA Stereo Mini-Plug Cable - 1.5' (B&H # KOXRSM015B), which is a good length for mounting on the camera, or use a longer length if you want to use the mic off-camera, on a boompole or stand.
