Product description

The innovative Wildtronics Amplified Pro Mono-Stereo Parabolic Microphone with Standard .060 Polycarbonate Dish has 3 outputs, left, right, and parabolic center microphone. Plus, this model has built-in preamps and mixer for the 3.5mm outputs. The most capable and versatile all-in-one recording system for sale anywhere that can connect to almost any recording device!

Includes a Very Low Noise Electronic Microphone Preamplifier with step-less analog gain control.
Provides Quick Easy Plug-in Headphone Use, a line level output for low cost recorders, and an amplified mic level output for DSLR, camcorder, or wireless transmitter.
Built in Audio Mixer allows you to combine any combination of parabolic and stereo output to the 3.5mm stereo line and mic level outputs.
Balanced XLR Microphone Outputs are Maintained and unamplified.
A lightweight, 22-inch, clear polycarbonate, highly accurate parabolic dish. The dish is flexible, yet rigid enough to maintain critical shape, and thick enough for good rear sound isolation. 100% Polycarbonate is a virtually unbreakable plastic that can withstand temperature extremes. Including the Standard 0.060 inch thick rollable version.
Very low noise mono parabolic mic array. The microphone array, by itself, has a noise floor of just 10dBA, which rivals standard microphones that cost >$1000. Low mic noise allows you to hear faint sounds that would normally be lost in the noise of lesser microphones.
Two additional, forward facing, low noise (12dbA), matched stereo microphones on separate channels allow wide angle (180 degree) ambient recording. No other "stereo" parabolic microphone offers this capability. The stereo pair is shielded from the parabolic dish focal point, therefore are unaffected by the parabolic reflector. This gives a nice, spacious stereo image.
Patent pending integral Booster Discs increase the gain to that of a 30-inch dish. This technology also improves low frequency response by eliminating the well known "bass dip" phenomenon, achieving superior sound quality. All competing parabolic microphones have a distinctive bass response dip (500-1000Hz), with accompanying peaks and dips at higher frequencies, causing a tinny sound.
Both balanced XLR and 3.5mm outputs are on the back panel, and you can even use the outputs simultaneously to connect multiple equipment.
Built-in, metal 1/4-20 threads in the base of the handle allows solid, reliable, and easy mounting of the Parabolic Microphone to a tripod.
Power the microphone using your equipment's phantom power or the internal, replaceable 9V battery. A 9-volt battery is required to power the internal preamp.
A foam suspension system reduces handling noise and dampens the dish. The suspension system is a carefully thought out design that isolates major components, and not only a cushioned hand grip. Nothing makes any creaking sounds when the unit is moved during use.
Weighing just 1 kg, the lightweight unit assembles and disassembles into three smaller pieces in under a minute for ease of transport and travel. The dish is flexible so that it may be "rolled" to fit into luggage and carrying cases.
80 PPI (pores per inch) pro grade windscreen included.
Designed and tested to withstand severe temperature and humidity extremes.
Shielded throughout to reduce the effects of EMI/RFI, even from cell phones.
Optional Accessory Bars and the Secondary Windscreen can be used to extend the usability of this model.

Testimonial: "I really love the well-built, amplified mono-stereo parabolic microphone, especially its ability to combine a stereo ambient recording (from the front-facing stereo mic pair) with a sharp and clean reflected parabolic signal (from the inward facing microphone element). What's amazing is that the two sound sources can be mixed together by ear for a pleasing result. The two sources can also be recorded separately. For instance, the frontal stereo microphone produces a very spacious ambient recording … perfect for someone who desires a recording of the full soundscape. In contrast, the inward-facing microphone produces a clean, un-distorted recording of the on-axis parabolic-reflected signal … perfect for someone who wants a super-clear monaural recording of a specific sound source. This is incredible. I believe this is the first parabolic microphone to allow for this degree of creative control!"
