THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING

POLSEN.

The MO-IDL2 dual lavalier microphone delivers

detailed and accurate sound for interviews, podcasts,

and YouTube videos, whether you’re shooting with a

smartphone, DSLR, or camcorder. It offers much

better audio than built-in microphones and enhances

the production value of any video presentation.

The compatibility of the microphone can be changed

with the ﬂip of a switch and eliminates the need for a

separate microphone when you change recording

devices. The microphone’s omnidirectional polar

pattern provides excellent off-axis response, even if a

subject turns their head while speaking. It also boasts

a wide frequency response and high sensitivity for

superb audio quality for all your projects.

RECORDING TIPS

•For the best recording quality, the MO-IDL2

microphone should be approximately 6 to 8 inches

from the sound source.

•Always use the foam windscreen to diminish vocal

plosives (e.g., the “pop” from pand bsounds) and

wind noise.

•To prevent cable tension that can move the

microphone and create handling noise during

recording, create a loop in the cable, and tape it to

the inside of the garment.

•If you experience excessive breath noises or

inconsistent levels due to head movement, try

attaching the mic upside down.
