Microphone Madness BSM-7 Stereo Lavalier Microphone
Key Features
  • Dual Omni Elements
  • Standard Mini Plug
The Microphone Madness MM-BSM-7 is a miniature omnidirectional lavalier microphone that features dual elements for stereo capturing. The capsules measure approximately 1/4" in diameter and 1/2" in length for unobtrusive operation.

The 1/8" connection is completely compatible with microphone inputs found on MiniDiscs, Dat recorders and analog portable recorders that supply a bias voltage of 1.5 to 10 volts D.C. (also known as plug in power). The omnidirectional polar patterns are better suited for ambient capturing as the pattern provides a generous pick up area at the direct and off-axis sections of the microphone capsule. The microphone provides a signal response that features smooth mid-range, and clean high frequency response for maximum detail.

I bought it for Zoom F1. Quality is great and not far from Zoom original Lav. Above all, it solved our issue of 1 recorder recording for 2 Lavs!!! A great find and reasonably priced. B&H well informed Sales staff was a savior in recommending this stereo lavs - thank you !!!!

Fabulous

Got this to do binaural field recordings. Sound quality is excellent. Build quality is excellent.One small complaint, although B&H's listing doesn't say it, the manual it came with refers to the clips as rotating and the one's I got are not. Also the cords are so long that cord management is an issue, but that's for me to resolve. I like the fact that I can seperate them that far.I currently have them taped to the backs of a set of headphones so I can record and monitor at the same time.

See any errors on this page?

question

Do these mics produce two mono signals, meaning the left mic is the left channel and the other mic is on the right channel? Or are they mixed into stereo, both mics on the right and left channel? Thanks!
Asked by: Jake F.
Each microphone is sent to a separate channel (left and right).

question

Will this work with a portable audio recorder like the Zoom H4N or the Tascam dr-40 (I think it'd need a 1/4 adapter for that one)?
Asked by: Anonymous
I do not have Zoom H4N and Tascam DR-40. However, It works fine with Tascam DR-05 and Roland R-05.

question

Will this work with the Zoom h1?
Asked by: Anonymous
I have used this product with the zoom H6 only, and it works well.I am not sure about the zoom h1. If there is a connection on the device, it should work just fine.
