Designed for capturing high-quality digital audio that can synchronize with timecode, the PDR from Lectrosonics is a digital recorder which captures industry-standard 24-bit/48 kHz audio in WAV (BWF) formats. It is particularly useful in situations when using a wireless microphone is impractical, such as when distance to a wireless receiver is too far, or when the quality of wireless recording simply won't cut it.

The PDR stores its recordings on microSDHC cards, and accepts audio via its TA5M 5-pin male connection point. An LCD and on-board keypad allow for quick and intuitive operation of the unit's controls. Via simple controls, the PDR's input can be adjusted to record at both mic- and line-level sources, utilizing a Lectrosonics' servo-bias preamp for both 2 and 4V lavalier microphones. You can also monitor directly from the unit through headphones or any compatible line-level device, so long as it boasts a 3.5mm connection point.

To synchronize time code with video and film production, a 5-pin LEMO jack is provided. This ensures that you can easily align its audio in the video timeline of any editing software, and gives you the ability to tether to a camera for the purpose of capturing a high-quality backup recording to boot. At 2.4 x 2.1 x 0.7", the PDR is easy to conceal in costumes, and can easily be left out of sight on a set to capture ambiance, as well as environmental and location sound. Its machined aluminum construction is durable.

The black COS-11D Omni Lavalier Mic, Normal Sens, with Hardwired TA5F Connector for Lectrosonics Transmitter by Sanken is for capturing audio. It is designed to be used for various applications such as broadcast TV, theater, film, videographers, and more.

Delivering an audio performance that meets the standard of modern digital wireless microphone systems, the COS-11D addresses the noise issues associated with digital in order to ensure a pristine audio signal. Plus, the wide frequency response ensures accurate, transparent audio reproduction; and its omnidirectional polar pattern provides a generous pickup area while minimizing feedback and off-axis noise.

Furthermore, an improved water-resistant mesh screen protects against humidity, perspiration, makeup, bad weather, etc. This COS-11D terminates in a TA5F connector and is wired for use with Lectrosonics UM400A, UM450, and SM series servo wiring transmitters. A metal windscreen, holder clip, rubber mount, and plastic case are also included.
