The Polsen MO-CPL2 is a lavalier condenser microphone designed to deliver accurate speech capture for podcasting, vlogging, video, television production, and interviews. It features a USB Type-C connector for compatibility with a variety of smartphones, tablets, and computers, and a 3.5mm stereo mini-jack output to allow easy headphone monitoring of playback signal. The MO-CPL2's electret condenser element produces a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, which is optimized to capture speech. The omnidirectional polar pattern ensures responsiveness from all directions, enabling consistent voice pickup even when you're looking around while speaking to an audience or on camera. No batteries or power supplies are required. Simply connect the MO-CPL2 to your compatible USB Type-C device to start recording. An integrated 16-bit / 44.1 kHz analog-to-digital converter delivers enhanced fidelity and less noise when compared to your device's internal A/D converter. Affix the supplied windscreen to reduce wind noise, breath noise, and plosives. The 5.25' cable is insulated to inhibit radio-frequency interference and handling noise, yielding a clean audio output signal. Use the tie clip to attach the mic to your subject's clothing; lapels and collars are commonly used. For convenience in storage and transport, the MO-CPL2 comes with a carry pouch. Compatible with USB Type-C Devices The MO-CPL2 is sensitivity-optimized and impedance-matched for USB Type-C devices. No additional adapters or plugs are necessary; just plug it into the USB Type-C port of your smartphone, tablet, or computer, and start recording. Omnidirectional Polar Pattern The omnidirectional polar pattern provides off-axis response, even if the subject turns their head while speaking to a live audience or acting on camera. This makes the MO-CPL2 ideal for recording professional-quality sound on mobile devices as well as Windows and Apple computers. Clear and Natural Sound The MO-CPL2 works with many audio and video applications to provide clear, natural, and accurate sound that's far superior to your device's internal microphone. Integrated Analog-to-Digital Converter Recording great audio to your device doesn't get much easier than this. You don't need a separate A/D converter or adapter because the MO-CPL2 has its own in-line A/D converter. It converts analog signal to 16-bit, 44.1 kHz digital audio with more accurate sound and less noise than your device's internal converter. No Batteries or Power Supply Needed The MO-CPL2 operates on power supplied by your smartphone, tablet, or computer. So, no batteries or power supply are needed. Insulated Cable The cable is insulated to reject radio-frequency interference that can interrupt and compromise recordings, videos, and podcasts. Whether you're indoors or out, the mic cable will reject whatever interference is in the area. Low Handling Noise When you're recording someone who's moving while they speak, or when the mic cable is hidden under a garment, low handling noise is a must. The insulated cable ensures you don't hear the rumbling from handling noise while you're recording. Headphone Jack With the MO-CPL2, you don't have to unplug the microphone and plug in headphones to listen back your audio. The integrated 3.5mm jack lets you plug in your headphones and listen back to your recording without swapping devices. Tie Clip and Foam Windscreen The included tie clip discreetly hides the microphone and provides hands-free simplicity for interviews, videos, and podcasts. The foam windscreen minimizes wind noise and vocal
