Q: 1. can i get this mic with a 30' foot cable and mute button ?

A: Hi, We use these boundary mics for filming round table conferences. All are connected via an additional 10m (approx 33 ft) XLR cable to an audio deck. No problems with noise.Each has its own channel so easy to null the gain if mute is needed. They work really well. Great value for the money. Hope that helpsK

Q: 2. Can you use a longer cable than 6 foot? How long of a cable can be used before mic will not work?

Q: 5. Can I power the mic thru the USB port with a portable battery pack?

A: This mic is designed to send audio via USB connection, as well as power back to the mic. Theoretically, since it is bus powered, you could use an external battery to power the mic through the USB, but you would not have control over the headphone audio line level output. This is all done on the computer.

Q: 6. I am interested in microphones like this one, but I am interested in chaining up to 4 of them together. Can you recommend an alternative product?

Q: 7. I want to know how much radius will be covered by single mic ?

A: I looked extensively to find the specs on the coverage of the Olympus ME-33. I couldn't find any specific information including Olympus website. I also called them in Australia no luck. I dont want to make assumptions on the range of this microphone. I have included a link below to their website where you can see a diagram of how many people and how many mics they used to cover them. This should give you a reasonable idea of the distance this mic is effective.https://a href= http://www.olympus.com.au/Products/Voice-Recorders/Audio-Accessories/ME-33.aspx target= _blank www.olympus.com.au/Products/Voice-Recorders/Audio-Accessories/ME-33.aspx/a

Q: 9. Will this hood work for a 50mm f 1.8?

A: It will not. This hood is for the RF 50mm f/1.2L USM Lens. For the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens, B&H # CA5018EFSTM, you will need the Canon ES-68 Lens Hood, B&H # CAES68. https://bhpho.to/2nFx3ck

Q: 10. If I were to use these, I would need to add about 25' of USB extension cable to the installed cable. Can the power and audio make it that far if I extend it this far?
