The tan Countryman E6i Directional Earset Mic, Medium Gain with Detachable 2mm Cable and 4-pin Hirose Connector for Sony 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 medium gain for very loud speaking, such as in theater performances and most vocals. 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 4-pin Hirose connector for direct connection to Sony DWT-B01, DWT-G01, DWT-S01, and DWT-V01 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.

Q: 1. I did not realize that this microphone was designed to be used on a phone with the headphone jack on the opposite end of the phone from the camera. Mine has both on the same end. Is there another microphone or a work around that you recommend using in this situation?

A: This mic is designed to be plugged into the headphone jack of the phone on either side of the camera. The mic provides a headphone output on the back of the unit for quick playback after recording. There's no need to have the mic on a specific side of the phone.

Q: 8. Would this device be good for recording bird song? Birds can be 100 or more ft away.

A: No, the Rode VideoMic Me Directional Mic for Smartphones is designed to work like a "selfie" mic to record audio while recording video closeup and within in a few feet from the smartphone. It will not pick up birds from as close as 20 feet away. It is not a good mic for recording birdsongs. If you are going to be recording birds that are 100 feet or further away, you will need a specialized setup with a parabolic dish for capturing sounds from very far. You would also want to use a digital recorder that will capture higher quality audio. Please contact our pro audio department by phone or through live chat on the website and we can help you to put together a setup that will be best suited for your needs and budget.
