Sony is known for its innovative and top-quality products that are designed to meet the various needs of users. The company has unveiled yet another topnotch product that keeps up with the needs of the COVID-19 era where teleconferences and virtual meetings are the norm. The device is dubbed Sony ECB-W2BT wireless microphone.
With the Sony ECB-W2BT wireless
microphone, stable transmission can be carried out even at a distance of up to
200 meters in an open and barrier-free environment. Also, it can be used for
audio recording to realize low-noise digital audio recording through the
supporting digital audio interface. In addition, the wireless microphone
utilises a new design which includes high-quality omnidirectional microphone
units to suppress noise. The mic can also pick up clear sounds from different
directions to achieve high-quality audio recording.
The microphone utilises Qualcomm aptX
low-latency codec which can provide a high-quality, low-latency audio
recording. There are three available recording modes, including MIC mode, MIX
mode, and a new RCVR mode. Users can record voice and ambient sound in
different modes according to their needs.
The MIC mode only receives one-way sound
from the microphone end, which is suitable for environmental applications such
as web conferences and live broadcasts. On the other hand, in the RCVR mode,
only one-way sound is received from the receiver which is suitable for
broadcasting comments on sports events, and recording children’s growth videos and
Vlogs. Finally, in the MIX mode, both the microphone and receiver can be
deployed at the same time, suitable for double vlog or interview environments.
The Sony ECM-W2BT wireless microphone also
comes with a windshield which can effectively reduce wind noise when recording
outdoors. When connected to a camera, the receiver can get power from the
camera’s hot shoe adapter and can last up to 9 hours of recording. There is no
word yet on the pricing and availability but the product is already listed on
Sony’s website.
