Point Source Audio Lavalier Switch Kit
Point Source Audio has released the Lavalier Switch Kit , which offers one mic capable of being worn in two different ways , with three different colour options for discreetly miking up talent .
At the heart of the Lavalier Switch Kit is the company ’ s IP57 Waterproof Omnidirectional Lavalier . The mic choice includes a low-sensitivity option for live stage applications or a high-sensitivity option for studio broadcast . This waterproof mic has a low profile at 4 mm in diameter , but it embodies all the highperformance characteristics expected from a larger format microphone , according to the company .
The versatility to change the lavalier to a professional on-ear microphone is offered with the company ’ s Embrace earmounts , included in beige , brown , and black colours . Embrace earmounts co nceal the mic on the ear , while the mounting system keeps the mic placement consistent to the mouth as with traditional headset style mics . To further camouflage the mic , the mic element colour can be changed with a selection of custom-designed color caps in beige , brown , black , white , and grey that also serve as pop filters and added protection from water and other elements .
