Countryman EMW Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone

The Countryman EMW is an omnidirectional lavalier microphone with a smooth polymer shell that slides across fabric, so it picks up very little clothing noise.

It is nearly waterproof and resists makeup and sweat, so it works hidden in hair, on the body, near water, or in rough weather. The aramid-reinforced cable stands up to daily use.

Its pickup stays even across a wide frequency range. Three high-frequency responses are offered: Shelved for normal lavalier use, Peaked for placement behind clothing, and Flat for miking instruments.

Each version is wired for a specific transmitter or input, such as Lectrosonics TA5F, Sennheiser’s 3.5 mm locking plug, or a phantom-powered XLR, or ends in pigtail leads.
