The light beige Countryman E6i Directional Earset Mic, Standard Gain with Detachable 2mm Cable and 3.5mm locking Connector for Azden Wireless Transmitters is a vocal microphone with a soft, flexible boom that facilitates its adjustment for different users. It's built with a larger silicone rubber earpiece making it better suited for situations when multiple users share the same mic.

The E6i 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, directional E6i 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. Additionally, the earset comes with two pattern-changeable protective caps for maximum isolation and gain before feedback. This directional E6i earset's cable terminates to a 3.5mm locking connector for direct connection to Azden older 10BT and 41BT wireless bodypack transmitters.

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

The E6i is soft and highly flexible with a larger silicone rubber ear piece. When multiple users share a mic, the E6i is a great choice. The soft boom is durable and the flexibility makes it easy to adjust for different users.

The E6i'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 E6i 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. The directional earset protective caps adjust the pattern from cardioid to hypercardioid.

Easy adjustment keeps the mic in a comfortable position for rejecting unwanted sounds. The directional E6i 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.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I have an issue with the L-858D-U with Godox transmitter kit. When I switch it on I get an error message, "Radio Transmitter Installed Cannot Be Used In This Meter". I have already sent a copy back for having the same issue. Am I missing an obvious set up step? As it is sold as a kit and the transmitter is already installed in the unit I am surprised that it doesn't work straight out of the box.

A: This is a known issue that will be remedied by updating the firmware.

Q: 2. When using the reflective metering on the Sekonic 858D, does anybody notice any fuzziness, or slightly out of focus appearance in the image when looking through the lenses to do the spot metering?

A: Once adjusted the spot meter is cristall clear. Bear in mind that it might take quite a few turns of the diopter ring (eye side) to accomplish sharp view.

Q: 3. Could this unit take the place of the Godox XProC TTL Wireless Flash Trigger for Canon cameras?

A: While this has the same radio signal as an XPRO C trigger, it can only fire a Godox flash wirelessly in order to obtain the exposure information to dial into your camera. You would still need an XPRO C or X1T-C trigger on the camera to shoot an image in your camera.

Q: 4. The transport bag has the appropriate dimensions to carry as luggage in the airplane cabin?

A: The dimension of the carrying case 22''L, 13.5''W, and 12''H. Check in with your airline for the dimension they allow.

Q: 5. This needs 10A at 26V. Can the "CAME-TV 48V Power Station" (BH CA48VPWRSTTN) power it using two "Core SWX APEX 360" batteries?

A: You can use the SmallRig RC 220B Bi-Color LED Monolight with the CAME-TV 48V Power Station with Dual V-Mount Battery Plates. But the batteries need to be 14-16v not 26v with that and should be at least 10A.

Q: 6. Is there any chance of a Godox wireless module being or becoming available? Or a work around for the L-858D? I dying to move off my 478DR. Sadly the pull of Godox wins over the pull of yet another Sekonic meter.

A: Sorry, but there are no plans to incorporate Godox transmitter into Sekonic meters at the present time. However there is always a chance another brand could be added as Elinchrom and Phottix were.

Q: 7. Which type of batteries can it use?

A: You can use 14.4v or 26v batteries with a Dtap connection and a optional Dtap to XLR cable to power the SmallRig RC 220B Bi-Color LED Monolight BH #SM3473.

Q: 8. when you have a Godox XPro F TTL trigger on the camera but using the Sekonic to dial in the lights, does the trigger on camera automatically adjust, or reflect your changes you made on the Sekonic? Or do you have to hit some button on the trigger to reset/refresh every time? And if once you're shooting you notice one light needs to be dialed up or down, can you adjust from the trigger on camera and will the Sekonic adjust the value as well? Just wondering so that during a shoot it's not too confusing.

A: I contacted Sekonic regarding your inquiry. According to Sekonic, they state you will need to place the Godox transmitter in App mode. Go to [Menu], shoot and then select [App}. This would put the transmitter into trigger only mode so it will not effect the setting made by the Sekonic meter.

Q: 9. How long does this meter take to boot up? From completely off to completely useable.

A: The start time is about 4 seconds from the time the power button is pressed and held.

Q: 10. Does it come with a 7" reflector?

A: Yes, the SmallRig RC 220D Daylight LED Monolight does come with a Hyper Reflector.
