The cocoa Countryman E6i Directional Earset Mic for Recordersis a vocal microphone with a soft, flexible boom that facilitates its adjustment for different users. It's built with a larger silicone rubber earpiece making it better suited for situations when multiple users share the same mic.

The E6i earset can be used on either ear for capturing audio and rejecting unwanted sound, feedback, or surrounding noise from stage monitors or nearby speakers in houses of worship, theater, and outdoor vocal and speech applications.

The low-profile, directional E6i earset virtually disappears against the skin, so performers will forget they're wearing a mic. This version offers the lowest gain for the most powerful vocals that require the highest overload. Additionally, the earset comes with two pattern-changeable protective caps for maximum isolation and gain before feedback. This directional E6i earset's cable terminates to a 3.5mm locking connector for direct connection to Olympus, Roland, Sony, Tascam, Yamaha, or Zoom DM-420, DM-520, DM-620, DS-2400, DS-40, DS-51, DS-61, DS-71, LS-10, LS-14, R05, R09HR, PCM-D50, PCM-M10, DR-05, DR-07mkII, DR-08, PR-10, Pocketrak C24, Pocketrak W24, H1, H2, and H2n portable recorders.

The Countryman earsets are very small, lightweight, and the least visible headworn microphones.

The E6i is soft and highly flexible with a larger silicone rubber ear piece. When multiple users share a mic, the E6i is a great choice. The soft boom is durable and the flexibility makes it easy to adjust for different users.

The E6i's stainless steel boom is tough and can be bent and re-bent to fit different performers. It is highly resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps. The earset should always have a protective cap in place to keep sweat, makeup, and other foreign material out of the microphone.

The E6i earset's flexible boom is easily shaped right on the performer's face. Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. The directional earset protective caps adjust the pattern from cardioid to hypercardioid.

Easy adjustment keeps the mic in a comfortable position for rejecting unwanted sounds. The directional E6i earset provides more isolation and is suitable for situations where there are loud monitors, extreme feedback, or environmental noise.

The included removable, quick-swap cable detaches from the actual earset, making it completely replaceable in the event of a short or break. The replaceable cable design makes upgrading wireless microphone systems easy as they are available in a wide selection of connections to accommodate most wireless transmitters.

Q: 2. Is it good for the Zoom H6 with stereo mic? Is there a video showing how it works?

A: Yes. The Saramonic SR-SMC20 Universal Shockmount for Portable Recorders is compatible for use with the Zoom H6 Portable Handy Recorder and an attached mic capsule like the X/Y capsule that is included with the recorder. The SR-SMC20 will support up to 1.1 lbs. The H6 and X/Y capsule weigh 0.9 lbs. We do not have a video showing how it works, but there should be instructions included in the package. The tripod socket on the H6 has the same size thread as the male thread on the top of the SR-SMC20 Shockmount.

Q: 3. Will this mixer work with 3-4 MVP-6 mics? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/746496-REG/Nady_MM_14FX_MM_14FX_4_Channel_Mini_Mixer.html/accessories

A: Because the Polsen MVP-6 Directional Shotgun Microphone for DSLR, Smartphones, and Portable Recorders requires plug-in power from its input source for operation, it would not be compatible for use with the Nady MM-14FX 4-Channel Mini Mixer with Echo Effects, which does not offer plug-in power. Typically, microphones like the MVP-6 are used on cameras, where plug-in power is commonly found from the camera input. The MVP-6 could, in theory, be used with a mixer offering XLR inputs with phantom power along with a phantom power converter such as the Rode VXLR+ (BH #ROVXLRP): https://bhpho.to/3L2t4BS

Q: 5. Should I buy the MVP 3 or the MVP 6 microphone?

A: The choice between the Polsen MVP-3 and MVP-6 is a matter of personal preference as well as what type of device the microphone will be connected to. Both models can be used with cameras, smartphones, and recorders, but the MVP-3 is a micro shotgun microphone that is 3.3" long with a frequency response range of 60 Hz to 20 kHz and handles loud sounds up to 105 dB and the MVP-6 is a short shotgun mic that is nearly twice the size and 6.3" long with a frequency response range of 40 Hz to 20 kHz and handles loud sounds up to 100 dB. Both mics are cardioid and require plug-in power to function.

Q: 10. I have a Vixia HF G40 but sound isn't picking up when I plug it in, but it is with a DSLR camera. Is it compatible with Canon Vixia HF G40 camcorder?

A: Because the Polsen MVP-3 Micro Directional Shotgun Microphone for DSLR, Smartphones, and Portable Recorders requires plug-in power from the camera's input connection, it is not compatible for use with the microphone input on the Canon VIXIA HF G40 Full HD Camcorder. The HF G40's input does not supply any power to external microphones and is only compatible for use with microphones that power themselves. The camera also features an advanced accessory shoe that offers a cable-free connection for certain microphones such as Canon's DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone (BH #CADM100) as an alternative.
