The beige Point Source Audio Series8 CO-8WLh Omnidirectional High-Sensitivity Waterproof Lavalier Microphone (Sony) is a miniature mic designed to deliver a natural vocal sound for recording and broadcast applications, including presentations, interviews, public speaking, and more. Featuring an unobtrusive mic element with only 4mm in diameter, it offers a discreet visual appearance and can easily fit behind a button of the presenter's clothing.
This version of the lav is equipped with a more sensitive mic capsule, which requires less gain and is optimized for broadcast applications. The Series8 CO-8WLh's omnidirectional polar pattern allows for a variety of mic placement options as it picks up the voice from all directions equally and doesn't need to be lined up with the mouth. The mic offers an IP57 rating, which protects it against water, sweat, and makeup, commonly harmful to microphones.
The unit comes with a windscreen, cable clip, storage box, and an interchangeable 3.5mm locking X-Connector for Sony wireless systems.
- Microphone can be briefly submersed in water up to 3.3", making it resistant to sweat, water, and makeup
- This version of the Series8 features a more sensitive microphone capsule designed for presentations, interviews, and broadcast work.
- The mic capsule can handle up to 118 dB SPL, sufficient headroom for standard speech levels.
- Mic element is only 0.16" / 4mm in diameter and easy to hide in a performer's clothing or hair
Omnidirectional Pickup Pattern
- Omnidirectional polar pattern picks up voice from all directions equally and doesn't need to be lined up with the mouth
