Focused unidirectional recording
The condenser mic is one of the best tools for recording professional audio, and onboard the Video Mic X1 you’ll find two! The unit’s focused X-Y configuration packs high-quality dual condenser capsules into a single package. X-Y is a unidirectional microphone pickup pattern that’s perfect for vlogs and interviews where focused audio is a must. Tight unidirectional stereo focus prioritizes what’s in your lens and minimizes distracting background noise. The X1 features a frequency roll-off switch that’s useful for bass-heavy situations such as concerts, and the unit’s impressive frequency range of 50Hz to 18kHz is suited for soft and loud environments.
Lightweight durable construction
Ready for mobile use, the Video Mic X1 is short in length and built from lightweight durable die-cast metal that transports easily. The mic has two power options: power it straight from a camera battery or use one LR44 battery (not included). The built-in on/off power switch for battery use is handy for power conservation in the field, and multiple lightweight LR44s can easily be slipped into your bag without adding noticeable bulk or weight.
Necessary accessories included
Everything you need to get started is in the box: a windscreen for outdoor use, a protective carrying pouch, a camera mounting adapter, a mic clip, a 2-foot connector cable with a 3.5mm angled connector, and a high-quality shockmount that eliminates handling noise during use.
