The Sennheiser MKE 1-ew-3 Miniature Lavalier Microphone is a compact and discreet microphone that ensures clear and intelligible sound reproduction. It is Sennheiser’s smallest clip-on mic, making it virtually invisible when worn. The mic captures the details and nuances of your voice with precision, thanks to its linear full-range frequency response. Despite its omnidirectional polar pattern, it minimizes ambient noise pickup. The MKE 1 is also designed to withstand challenges, with a protective membrane that keeps sweat at bay and a rugged flexible cable that minimizes impact and handling noise.
Please note that the MKE 1-ew-3 has a locking 3.5mm connector, and other versions with different connectors are available separately.
The MKE 1 is a hidden gem among Sennheiser’s clip-on microphones. It offers exceptional clarity and articulation, capturing every syllable with outstanding intelligibility. Its linear frequency response ensures natural sound without any coloration. The omnidirectional polar pattern only captures what you want, and its ultra-small size allows for easy concealment, making it perfect for stage or on-camera use. The MKE 1 comes with two frequency response caps for adjusting high-frequency response and reducing unwanted noise. Its unique design minimizes handling noise and provides durability. The mic is protected from sweat and other forms of moisture, and its cable is robust and flexible. Flexible mounting options are available using clips or adhesive tape.
The package includes the MKE 1-ew-3 Miniature Lavalier Microphone, a beige 3.5mm connector, a small frequency response cap, a large frequency response cap, and three makeup protection caps. The mic is Sennheiser’s most compact clip-on mic, ensuring minimal visibility. It can handle high sound pressure levels without clipping, providing crystal-clear vocal capture. The mic reproduces sound naturally with low ambient noise. The thin cable minimizes handling noise, and it is sweat-resistant with a protective membrane. Additional protection is provided by a special gauze and multi-purpose cap. The mic can be attached using clips or adhesive tape, and an anti-kink sleeve ensures reliability.
