SOUND PROFESSIONALS - LOW NOISE (HIGH SENSITIVITY - Best for recording quieter sounds) IN-EAR BINAURAL MICROPHONES, COMPATIBLE WITH MOST PORTABLE RECORDERS - MADE IN USA
The SP-TFB-2 Sound Professionals In-Ear Binaural microphones are mounted in extremely comfortable super-soft, In-Ear holders that slip right into the ear structure. Why put a microphone here you ask? Pretty simple, really. There have been many binaural microphone designs over the years.......mics built into fake heads, built into Croakies, made with clips for attaching to glasses, built into headphones and earbuds. All of these have one flaw......none actually put the mic element in the best possible place for the most realistic recording - within the Pinna (the part of the human ear that is visible - the folds on the outside). Even earbud Binaurals have the mic element outside the Pinna. Because everyones Pinna is unique, a recording made in your own ears will sound the most realistic.
These mics put the mic element right next to the ear canal, well within the Pinna. This results in the most realistic recording possible, from the perspective of the person wearing them. While recording, your hearing is not impaired, so you can enjoy the sound of the performance while making a very realistic recording. The cables terminate in a stereo 1/8" (3.5mm) gold-plated miniplug. Black cable models with standard sensitivity have straight plugs, all others use right-angle plugs. There are two available microphone sensitivities. The standard sensitivity option is for use in situations that will range from fairly quiet to extremely loud sounds. The high sensitivity option if for use in situations that will range from extremely quiet to moderately loud sounds. Microphone cables are available in black or beige.
