Voice Technologies VT506 Overview

From Voice Technologies the VT506 is a professional omnidirectional lavalier microphone with a wide frequency response that provides enhanced intelligibility of vocals. Designed for outstanding performance in broadcast, theatrical and sound-reinforcement applications, the VT506's frequency response delivers exceptional presence with a 6dB rise in the high frequency range.

Speech clarity is enhanced while the omnidirectional polar pattern suppresses handling and clothing noise. Noise caused by radio frequency interference is also minimized with an internal RF filter. The 5-foot (1.5 meter) cable is rugged and moisture proof and also features excellent isolation from handling noise.

6dB High Frequency Rise
A boost in the upper frequency range results in greater intelligibility in speech and vocals, resulting in improved clarity.
Wired For Lectrosonics Transmitters
The VT506 is available in a variety of connectors; this version features a TA5-Female connector for Lectrosonics wireless transmitters.
Wide Frequency Response
The lavalier features a wide, frequency response for transparent signal reproduction throughout.
Omnidirectional Polar Pattern
The omnidirectional pattern provides generous pick up at the off-axis sections of the capsule. The pattern also suppresses handling noise caused by clothing and skin contact.
RF Suppression Filter
Radio Frequency noise is also suppressed via an internal RF filter.

Sounds Bad

I heard this is good mic but my voice sounds really bad with it. I need to remove 10dB on 160Hz. Really disapointed

First tests of this mic were impressive

I am a professional videographer and needed another Lavalier (pendant) microphone for interviews and random remote nature audio. I have only begun using this particular mic but was really impressed at the clarity & quality within the pick up range. I may get another one if future tests support these initial findings.

Does this mic require "plug-in power" from the camera? I ask because my Fuji XT-3 does not provide power in the 1/8" mic input but this mic seems like a nice choice.

Asked by: richard
This mic can be used with an iPhone XS Max, but you would require a Rode SC4 3.5mm TRS to TRRS Adaptor, B&H # ROSC4 and an Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter, B&H # APLAADAP in order for it to connect to the iPhone. .
