The Polsen MO-IPL2 is a lavalier condenser microphone designed to deliver accurate speech capture for podcasting, vlogging, video, television production, interviews, and public address. It features an Apple MFi–certified Lightning connector for compatibility with a iPhones and iPads. The 3.5mm stereo mini-jack output, though disabled during recording, allows easy headphone monitoring of the playback signal. The MO-IPL2's electret condenser element produces a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, which is honed to complement the sound of the human voice. The omnidirectional polar pattern ensures responsive sound pick-up from all directions while avoiding the bass boost caused by proximity effect.

No batteries or power supplies are required. Simply connect the MO-IPL2 to your compatible iOS device for immediate operation. An integrated 16-bit / 44.1 kHz analog-to-digital converter delivers enhanced fidelity and less noise when compared to your device's internal A/D converter. Affix the supplied windscreen to reduce wind noise, breath noise, and plosives. The 5.25' cable is insulated to inhibit radio-frequency interference and handling noise, yielding a clean audio output signal. Use the tie clip to attach the mic to your subject's clothing; lapels and collars are commonly used. For convenience in storage and transport, the MO-IPL2 comes with a carry pouch.

The MO-IPL2 is for recording applications only. It is not meant to replace wired or Bluetooth earphones with integrated microphones that are commonly used for phone calls, video chats, and FaceTime.

Thanks to the Apple MFi–certified Lightning connector, the MO-IPL2 operates via a single connection to the Lightning port of your compatible iPhone, iPad, or iPod; adapters, third-party cables, batteries, and power supplies are unnecessary. The MO-IPL2's sensitivity and impedance are tuned specifically for iOS devices, ensuring optimal performance.

By utilizing an omnidirectional polar pattern, the MO-IPL2 is able to capture sound from all around it. Its 360° of responsiveness maximizes consistency in volume even when the subject turns away from the mic. It also eliminates the proximity effect that can occur when the mic is too close to the talent.

The electret condenser capsule's wide frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz is customized to complement the human voice. Whether recording in the field or working with an audience indoors, the tone and dynamic range of the MO-IPL2 yield an accurate and natural sound—a clear upgrade from internal mics in mobile devices.

Instead of listening to the playback through the little internal speaker of your iOS device, connect your headphones to the MO-IPL2's built-in 3.5mm stereo mini jack and listen to the playback with full stereo sound. Once you've finished recording, you don't have to disconnect the MO-IPL2, just plug in your headphones and listen to the playback.
