Frequently Asked Questions

CORE enhances the microphone’s sensitivity and headroom, resulting in a more transparent and detailed sound with lower self-noise, especially valuable in quiet environments.
While the telescopic boom is compact, it's designed primarily for mounting on a shoulder pad or camera rig; handheld operation requires a very steady hand.
MicroDot minimizes cable bulk and improves reliability, but adapters exist, though they add cost and potential for noise introduction.
