Overview
The Sennheiser MKE 1-4 - Lavalier Microphone is Sennheiser's smallest, professional lavalier microphone to date. Measuring just 3.3mm in diameter, the MKE1 is well suited for placement in hair, the body, clothing, accessories, props, etc. Audio signal is reproduced transparently, while maximum intelligibility of speech and vocals is achieved with its omnidirectional polar pattern and wide frequency response. The Kevlar reinforced cable is rugged and minimizes surface noise. The MKE1's moisture resistant enclosure protects against damage caused by moisture, making it well suited for actors, performers, and broadcast applications.
