Interior of clothing
It is safest to use the
windshield at all times
to avoid plosives and
wind noise, even when
recording inside.
smartLavTM is compatible
with a range of phones,
laptop computers and
other audio devices.
Attach the mic to
lapel or clothing,
about 15- 20cm /
6 inches from face.
Pro tip: Tape a
loose loop in the
mic cord on the
inside of clothing.
This gives you
added strain relief
and isolation from
unwanted noise.
