Sony ECM-L1 Pro-Quality Lavalier Microphone with Plug-In Power and Brass Housing (Black)

The capsule for the Sony ECM-L1 Pro-Quality Lavalier Microphone in Black is based on the ECM-77 series, which is extensively used and trusted by sound professionals, as are Sony's other pro audio devices. With the legacy as the go-to microphone for professional broadcasters in both studios and on location, the ECM-L1 is engineered to give excellent results to a wide variety of artists.
Ceramic Back Plate and Brass Exterior
The ceramic back plate's high stiffness and outstanding damping capabilities offer superior acoustic properties as well as robust electrical stability for low-noise recording in a variety of settings. The microphone capsule is housed in a machined brass shell to reduce undesired resonances and produce a clear, sharp sound.
Special Cable
The high-purity OFC (oxygen-free copper) cable lowers transmission loss while maintaining the high sound quality of the recorded audio.
Crystal-Clear Voice
Lavalier microphones can be placed near the speaker's mouth, resulting in enhanced audio capture and definition than built-in microphones in cameras and other devices. The microphone capsule is housed in a highly durable exterior brass casing that resists deformation and protects the microphone from damage even during on-location use. The 2-core protected cable reduces unwanted noise, and its 2.2 mm diameter makes it resistant to breakage. A locking ring eliminates inadvertent disconnections from the recording device.
Windscreens
The accompanying metal and fur windscreens can be exchanged depending on use and surroundings. When the microphone needs to be hidden, the metal screen is more visually subtle, however the fur screen is more suited to suppressing outdoor wind noise and pop noise interference.
Elegant Design with Mini Plug
Aside from the body's modest size, the logo on the clip is embossed rather than printed, resulting in a beautiful but subtle look when filming. It is also suitable for business-related video recording. The ECM-L1 comes with a 3.5mm mini plug that offers plug-in power support and is designed for a wide range of applications, including direct connection to alpha cameras equipped with aux audio inputs or wireless microphone transmitters, allowing you to capture the speaker's voice on your preferred device without using visually disruptive audio devices.
Other Features
Because it may be linked to a microphone input terminal that accepts common plug-in power, this unit is compatible with a variety of devices, including IC recorders and smartphones. This high-performance microphone captures the speech closer to the lips, resulting in higher-quality sound than the device's integrated microphone.
