Avlex Corporation is pleased to introduce the Superlux E531/BCS M/S Stereo Field Recording Microphone. Featuring a mid-side configuration, battery-powered operation for use anywhere, and a 3.5 mm stereo mini plug that facilitates integration with a wide range of products, this versatile electret-condenser microphone makes the ideal recording tool for capturing orchestras, choirs, and numerous additional stage or outdoor venues with natural spatial impact and stunning realism.
As a mid-side configured microphone, the new E531/BCS provides a cardioid polar pattern for its mid section and a figure 8 polar pattern for the side. As part of this arrangement, this versatile recording tool offers the recording engineer two coverage patterns at the flip of a switch: 90 degrees and 120 degrees. When recording solo instruments or dialog, the microphone's 90-degree pattern makes an excellent choice, while the 120-degree pattern is ideal for larger groups such as instrumental ensembles and choirs due to the expanded coverage it provides.
With its compact form factor, lightweight body, and 3.5 mm stereo mini plug, the new Superlux E531/BCS is well suited for use with portable digital recording equipment such as DAT, hard disk, MiniDisc, or flash memory recorders—making this a go anywhere tool for a myriad of professional stereo applications. Since the E531/BCS is powered by a single 1.5 Volt AA battery that is capable of providing upwards of 200 hours of use, this microphone is optimized for field recording applications, and to ensure maximum battery life, the unit provides an On/Off switch to help users maintain the battery when the unit is not in service.
With a frequency response of 100 Hz - 15 kHz, the new Superlux E531/BCS makes a great choice for those seeking a cost-effective microphone that delivers clear, natural sound and true-to-life stereo imaging. Supplied accessories include a microphone stand clip that supports both 3/8-inch and 5/8-inch threads plus a foam windscreen to reduce plosives or wind noise.
The new Superlux E531/BCS M/S Stereo Field Recording Microphone carries a MSRP of $49. The microphone is available now.
