You are going to work with video or audio and want to record the best sound quality. An external microphone is indispensable for this. There are different types of microphones for different situations. Do you want to buy a microphone, but could use some help? In our selection aid for microphones we will help you choose the most suitable microphone.
Your smartphone or camera has an internal microphone that provides excellent sound quality, especially on new models. But if you want the best sound quality, an external microphone is indispensable. For example, an external microphone ensures that you are not bothered by noise and filters ambient noise. In addition, it amplifies your sound, making it easy to record sound from a distance. Finally, many external microphones allow you to control the recording volume during recording. These factors mean that you can create great sound quality for any situation with an external microphone.
A directional microphone is used to focus on a specific sound. Directional microphones pick up the slightest sound and exclude ambient noise. The sound quality is therefore very high. The microphone is ideal for use at a slightly greater distance. Perfect for an interview.
The pin microphone (also called a tie-clip microphone or lavalier) is useful when recording lectures, interviews and documentaries, for example. You can attach the tie clip under the speaker's clothing, so that the microphone is barely visible. Because the microphone is mounted so close to the face, it provides a clear and isolated sound.
