J K Pro Lavalier Lapel Microphone MIC-J 044 Compatible with Sennheiser Wireless Transmitter - Omnidirectional Condenser Mic

I use the actual $130 Senheisser G3 mics and wireless systems every day for work. I bought these for my freelance video/audio set up at home and they have almost the exact pickup pattern and are actually a little more sensitive/louder than the originals. They don't have a removable pop filter like the originals but they are very small so it hasent been a problem. Easy to hide under garmets, has a fantastic sound, and a fantastic price. Only thing is the cord seems thinner and cheaper and is about 1.5 feet shorter than the originals, but that hasent been a problem. Still plenty long to run for the transmitter to collar with length to spare. I'll be buying more!

I really like this Mic, didn't realise it was so small which was a really pleasant surprise. I did a quick record with it as soon as I got it and was quite pleased with the sound. Background noise pick up was quite low compared to a lav I used recently which came off a sennheiser wireless mic I borrowed, this one gave a nice cleaner sound.I recorded with Studio condenser mic and this one into a Zoom H4N. The low end on the studio mic was seriously pronounced, this mic however gave a more sibilant sound, with a nice natural vocal tone with no low end boom, this is obviously expected due to the size of the diaphragm in the two different mics, but this mic for the price is not bad at all!Update:I couldn't praise this mic enough! I just did a real world recording into my H4n with this mic at a taxi park in Lagos Nigeria at Marina, the busiest spot in the metropolis. This mic is very sensitive so you have to set your record levels very low. I used a windshield I bought from Amazon and the recording was quite impressive with minimal background noise in such a busy area, the vocals picked up quite nicely. This is a steal at $29!

I bought this unit as a back up for the lavalier that came with my Sennheiser ew100 g3 when I fond out the replacement is $150 dollars. With that said this mic works very well.The same quality is not the same as the original but with a small adjustment in the sensitivity of the body pack it pick up my voice from the same distance with no problem. It is extremely small and neat which is a plus. The clip that holds it is a little flimsy but manageable. Only one real problem for me. There is a noticeable increase in the echo if you are recording but with an adjustment to the reverb it's okay, not great but okay. Maybe someone better skilled with a mixer can get it just right.Overall if you need a inexpensive lavalier microphone this is a good choice. I use mine for preaching at a small church that records the sermons and it's working for us.

As my youtube channel grew, I started to look for ways I could improve my audio. I got this and an H1N recorder to try out and it worked out really well. I tend to use this when I am out in the wild filming an outdoor video and I am not real close to the camera. For instance, if I am climbing a tree and my camera is on a tripod at the base of the tree, I can talk at a normal voice at the top of the tree without having to yell. It just makes for a much more professional appearance. It is mono though, so in post you have to switch it to be on both tracks so that it comes through for the viewer as stereo. I have had a couple of videos in the beginning where I forgot to do that. There are a few people who point that out but not many complaints.

I've used this mic on several movie shoots. it's size was what drew me to it. but it does have some setbacks.The Good: The size, sound and priceThe Bad: The Size - if you lose one of the clips that come with it, good luck with a standard clip. They are too big, and the company doesn't seem to be able to sell them separately. I've had to roll them in electrical tape to get them thick enough to be used in a typical clip.The sound - The actual sound sounds great. the problem is, that the wire is noisy as hell. you can run your hand along the wire and it just produces noise. If you pin the lav on something to minimize movement (like a mini wireless boom) they work fine.other lav accessories you may have do not fit.This has potential, but a couple things need to change.

I was SO HAPPY with this lavs, i purchased 2 of these, it works fantastic, nice sound, no interference at all, tiny capsule to hide easy, BUT!!! I used it, both in no more than 3 or 4 times, and in my last gig in a film production, it was great one day, and the next day not one, BOTH suddenly just sounds to extremely to low, i cleaned both just the cable, never wet the capsule at all, always storage in a separated soft bag, with those silica gel sachets to prevent any ambient humidity can damage them, and just every time i used (again, 3 o 4 times tops) just failed, BOTH, this aren't my first lavs, i use to work with Sony, Sennheiser, xvive, saramonic and even expensive ones like DPAs, country man and Cos 11, and NEVER damage a mic, less for have extremely care and safe cleaning... I'm pretty sure the "warranty" is not longer available, but to be honest, I DO DESERVE that you pays me back or send me two new ones, because i really feel stolen... Yes are cheap, yes i can't expect THE BEST for these lavs, but SOUNDS GREAT, but how can get damaged like this, FOR NO REASON AT ALL??? But the way, is not a matter of on transmitter, cause both are used with different transmittersSound quality: 5Gain: 4Product quality: -11 (completely disappointed ☹️)
