The LEWITT INTERVIEWER is a professional omnidirectional dynamic microphone meticulously engineered for rigorous Electronic News Gathering (ENG), broadcast applications, and location recording. The tailored capsule guarantees exceptional speech intelligibility, ensuring clear communication regardless of the surrounding acoustic environment. It is a dedicated workhorse for journalists, podcasters, and content creators who demand reliable, plug-and-play audio capture in fast-paced field scenarios.
Zero Proximity Effect and Forgiving Placement
Maintaining a consistent distance from the sound source is often impossible during dynamic field interviews. Utilizing an omnidirectional polar pattern entirely eliminates the proximity effect. The vocal tonality remains natural and consistent, free of overwhelming low-frequency buildup, even if the subject holds the microphone directly against their lips. The wide pickup angle also drastically simplifies capturing dialogue between two people with a single microphone, heavily forgiving off-axis positioning by the reporter.
Rugged Field Reliability and Handling Noise Rejection
Location recording dictates unpredictable physical handling and exposure to harsh elements. The INTERVIEWER incorporates an advanced internal rubber suspension system that effectively decouples the capsule from the chassis, severely attenuating mechanical handling noise when passing the mic back and forth. The elongated body provides a secure, comfortable grip for extended use. An integrated acoustic shield protects the transducer against wind, dust, and moisture, housed within a heavy-duty metal enclosure built to survive constant touring and field abuse.
