LOM basicUcho

This field recording kit is built around two matched basicUcho microphones and is designed for precise stereo recordings of environments, atmospheres, and subtle sonic details. The two omnidirectional electret condenser microphones are powered by phantom power and feature very low self-noise as well as high sensitivity extending into the ultrasonic range. This makes them particularly well suited for quiet sound sources and natural acoustic spaces where a transparent, uncoloured sound is required. Thanks to their XLR connections, the microphones can be used directly with common field recorders and professional microphone preamps. The kit is assembled to allow for a compact stereo setup that can be deployed quickly, both for handheld mobile recording and for stationary use on a stand. Windshields and microphone mounts enable practical use in a wide range of recording situations.
