V.Lav is Easy to Use
The V.Lav is a perfect fit for mobile use with a 3.5mm TRRS connector. With a 5 meter cable, you will have plenty of slack to even run the lav into a camera on a tripod. Simply clip it onto your clothes and plug it into your device’s microphone or headset jack and start recording. Getting professional audio has never been so easy.
Better Sound Than Ever
The V.Lav delivers clear, natural sound. By employing an omni-directional condenser capsule, the V.Lav picks up sound equally from all directions. In addition, its flat un-colored frequency response is optimized for hearing sounds the way they sounded in the real world.
Long Battery Life
The V.Lav uses two LR41 cell batteries. The battery and microprocessor chip are enclosed in a CNC aluminum housing. Battery power is only used when the V.Lav is determining how to adapt to the microphone input you’ve plugged it into. After the V.Lav has adapted to your device the microphone capsule then uses the voltage from your device and puts the LR41 batteries back to sleep.
All-In-One
The V.Lav delivers hands-free clean audio and comes with all the accessories you’ll ever need. The included windscreen minimizes wind noise and vocal plosives. The cord organizer allows for clean cable management and the rugged carry case is perfect for carrying and protecting the entire kit together.
