Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Would this be suitable for teaching an online movement class (without complex movements)?

A: The microphone works well. Nevertheless I found the cord to be a problem in close spaces due to tangling. I then purchased a Rode Go wireless mic from B&H. That has worked well.

Q: 2. Can I pair this mic with the system 10 lavalier receivers?

A: Thank you for your question. You can use up to 8 systems in an ideal environment. the receiver can only operate on a single transmitter at a time so you would need 8 full systems to mic up 8 people.

Q: 3. How does this compare to the Zoom H1n? There are no reviews here nor in YouTube.

A: There are some advantages to the Zoom H1n and some for the Saramonic SR-Q2M. The Zoom is a bit smaller and lighter, but the Saramonic has metal construction, so it's a bit more substantial and rugged. So it depends on what you're looking for, lighter and smaller versus stronger and more rugged. The Zoom features a more detailed screen and editing features, while the Saramonic includes a remote, lavalier, case, furry windscreen and MicroSD Again it depends on what you're looking for, will the more detailed screen and editing features matter more than a more complete suite of accessories. If those accessories are something you want and need, the Saramonic is clearly a better value because those items add up when purchased separately.
