Lavalier Dynamic Microphones
A lavalier microphone is a small microphone that clips onto clothing, leaving the speaker's hands free and allowing them to appear natural. It is suitable for presenting, hosting, interviews and simple speech recording. When choosing one, pay attention to the cable, connector, mounting method and distance between the microphone and your mouth.
What can you use a lavalier microphone for?
| Use | What to look for |
|---|---|
| Interviews and short video segments | Discreet mounting, cable length and a connector that fits your device |
| Presentations and hosting | Secure mounting to prevent clothing from rustling as you move |
| Spoken word while moving | Durable cable and construction, protection against wind |
How to get clear speech
For clear results, secure the microphone firmly so that clothing does not rub against it when you move. For outdoor use or in draughty conditions, consider a windshield. Check each model's transducer type, power requirements and connector, as many lavalier microphones are condenser microphones.
If you are looking for a microphone for singing or an instrument, take a look at dynamic vocal microphones or dynamic instrument microphones. You will find all types in the dynamic microphones category.
