The media could not be loaded.
I took a chance on this since it delivered same day and it was so cheap and it just performed beautifully. I own six different lav mics from several top brands, and this one is easily comparable to them (better than some). I only added about 3 notches of gain and I could hear myself clearly with very little white noise. I could easily gate out the noise floor...
We'll see how it fairs in the long term, as I've only just received it, but so far this lav mic has left a very good impression. Especially considering all of the extra kit included with the mic. (replacement filters, extension cable, and TRRS to TRS converter)
"noise cancellation is on your phone, not the mic"
just fyi... these reviewers complaining about "noise cancellation" need to educate themselves on audio gear. I don't think they understand that acoustical noise cancellation is a software algorithm installed on their smart phones, the microphone is merely built to support it. You can turn it off on your smartphone. It is not a feature of the microphone.
If I don't take care to keep my gain down, this microphone will pickup everything in the area with no problem, that's because my zoom recorder has no acoustical noise cancellation. You can hear this in my recording. (if amazon will ever allow me to post it.)
"the mic survives minor bumps and drops just fine."
furthermore, there is another review complaining their microphone died after dropping it 3 feet. I was concerned about that so I gave mine a few test drops 5ft and light smacks onto a marble floor. works fine. I think they're either downplaying the severity of their abuse or got a defective model and should've filed a warranty claim rather than whining on amazon.
hope this helps!
