Frequently Asked Questions About Lapel Microphones
Omnidirectional mics pick up sound equally from all directions, while cardioid mics primarily capture sound from the front, rejecting sounds from the sides and rear. Cardioid patterns are generally better for noisy environments.
Use a foam windscreen, secure the mic firmly to clothing away from rustling areas, and consider using a clip designed to dampen vibrations.
Phantom power is a DC voltage supplied through the microphone cable to power active lapel mics, allowing them to operate without an external battery.
