Q: 1. Polsen cardioid is compatible with Zoom H4?

A: On its own, the Polsen Cardioid Lavalier Microphone with 3.5mm Locking Connector for Sennheiser and Polsen UWM Transmitters is not compatible for direct connection to the Zoom H4n Pro, however, it can be used with an adapter to enable compatibility. The RODE VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter (B&H # ROVXLRP) will attach to the locking 3,5mm connector on the Polsen mic and enable connection via XLR, as well as to convert phantom power (48V) from the H4n Pro to the proper amount of plug-in power fo the mic.

Q: 5. Is it compatible with Rode wirelless go II?

A: This mic has a 3,5mm locking connector so it may not connect properly or securely to the input on a Rode Wireless GO II transmitter. It would be better to use a different mic that has a standard non-locking 3.5mm connector, such as the Polsen OLM-10 (B&H # POOLM10) or Polsen PL-4 (B&H # POPL4) to assure compatibility and prevent problems like having the mic accidentally disconnect or create noise from improper connection at the input.

Q: 6. Would this work with a DSLR?

A: You would not be able to directly plug in this mic to a DSLR because the connector is TA4F, which is intended for connecting to a Shure wireless bodypack. For utilizing a lavalier mic such as this in a video application, we would recommend using this mic in conjunction with a portable wireless solution such as the Shure FP15 wireless system. The lavalier would be plugged into the transmitter bodypack and worn by the talent on camera, while the receiver bodypack would be connected to your DSLR or a field mixer. This would also eliminate the issue of the on-camera talent having to be tethered to the camera by the lavalier's cable and would allow for free range of movement as well as a more appropriate shooting distance.

Q: 7. Would this work with a Shure SLX1 body pack?

A: Yes, the Shure UL4 UniPlex Cardioid Subminiature Lavalier Microphone is compatible with SLX1 bodypack transmitters.

Q: 8. Hello. I would like to connect the MX185 to my DSLR (Canon t7i) mini jack and need phantom power for it to work. Can I use something like the IK Multimedia iRig Pre? WL185 to RK100PK preamp to iRig Pre to DSLR (with TRRS to TRS adapter). Are there better options to get phantom power and connect to the DSLR? Many thanks.

A: The iRig Pre can work if used with a TRRS to TRS adapter like the Rode SC3 (B&H # ROSC3), but there are other camera-mountable systems like the Beachtek DXA-MICRO-PRO Active XLR Compact Adapter (B&H # BEDXAMICROP), Comica Audio CVM-AX3 Dual-Channel Audio Mixer for DSLRs (B&H # COCVMAX3), or Saramonic SR-PAX1 Two-Channel Audio Mixer, Preamp, Microphone Adapter (B&H # SASRPAX1) which are specifically for use with cameras. Please feel free to contact us if you would like further assistance.

Q: 9. Is this compatible with the Shure SLXD1 body pack?
