The MCSM-4 Miniature Cardioid Stereo Lavalier Microphones from Microphone Madness are lavalier microphones mounted inside two brass cylinders that have been enclosed in a durable rubber coating and terminate into a single 1/8" gold-plated mini-jack connector. They can be used to capture audio with recorders supplying a bias voltage of between 1.5 to 10 VDC (also known as plug-in power).

Each microphone offers a cardioid polar pattern, effective in minimizing off-axis noise and ambience. Each microphone offers a naturally crisp sound, providing deep bass, smooth mid-range, and clean high-frequency response. The two unidirectional mics are combined at the stereo mini-jack to output a stereo signal for recording. The MCSM-4 Miniature Cardioid Stereo Lavalier Microphones are compatible with—but not limited to—the following recorders: Edirol R9, Kodak Zi8 HD pocket video camera, Olympus DS-40, Olympus LS-10, Tascam DR-01, Tascam DR-03, Tascam DR-07, Yamaha CX, Zoom H1, Zoom H2, and Zoom H4N.

Stereo Lavalier

Dual cardioid lavaliers are featured and provide easy microphone placement for stereo capturing.

Single 1/8" (3.5mm) Output

Both elements feature shielded cables and terminate to a single stereo 1/8" output connector. The connector is compatible with microphone inputs that supply a bias voltage of 1.5 to 10 volts D.C. (also known as plug-in power).

Cardioid Polar Pattern

Both capsules provide cardioid polar patterns which are effective in minimizing off-axis audio and noise.
