Deity W.Lav Pro Lavalier Microphone - 3.5mm TRS

IP57 signifies that the microphone is protected against dust ingress and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it highly resilient to challenging environmental conditions.

The W.Lav Pro features a 3.5mm TRS connector, which is typically for cameras and audio recorders. Most smartphones require a 3.5mm TRRS connector. You will likely need a TRS to TRRS adapter (sold separately) to connect it to a smartphone's headphone jack.

No, the Deity W.Lav Pro is a passive lavalier microphone that receives power from the device it is connected to via its 3.5mm input. It does not require phantom power.

The standard cable length for the Deity W.Lav Pro is typically around 4-6 feet (1.2-1.8 meters), providing sufficient reach for most recording situations. Please refer to the product packaging for exact specifications.

Yes, the Deity W.Lav Pro usually includes multiple foam windscreens to help reduce wind noise and plosives, ensuring clearer audio capture in various conditions.

An omnidirectional pattern picks up sound equally from all directions. This results in a more natural and open sound, and it's forgiving if the subject moves their head. However, it also means it will pick up more ambient noise than a directional microphone.

Verify the 3.5mm TRS connector is fully inserted into the device's microphone input. Check that the device's input is set to 'microphone' and not 'line-in'. Test with a different compatible device to rule out an issue with the recording equipment.

Ensure the microphone gain on your recording device is set appropriately. The W.Lav Pro is a sensitive microphone; high gain settings may not be necessary and could introduce noise. Check for any obstructions near the microphone capsule.

While omnidirectional, the W.Lav Pro can pick up ambient sounds. Position the microphone as close to the sound source (the talent's mouth) as possible. Consider using a windscreen to reduce wind noise if outdoors. In very noisy environments, look for ways to isolate the talent or consider a more directional microphone if feasible.

Use the included windscreen or foam cover to help mitigate plosive sounds (P's and B's) and sibilance. Ensure the microphone is not placed directly in the primary airflow from the talent's mouth.
