Everything You Need
With the Vidpro XM-88 13-Piece Professional Video & Broadcast Unidirectional Condenser Shotgun Microphone Kit, you can start recording right out of the box. In addition to the high-quality microphone, the kit includes long and short (on-camera) audio cables with multiple connectors to support XLR, 3.5mm mini and 6.3mm jacks for connection to your camera, camcorder or audio recorder, as well as an adjustable suspension shock mount and stand mount with thread adapters to accommodate mounting to a ⅝” mic stand, ⅜” boom pole, ¼” tripod and camera shoe. It also includes a furry wind muff for outdoor shoots, a foam wind shield for indoor recording, a cushioned hand grip for convenient handheld operation, a foam-padded carrying case for easy transport and an AA alkaline battery for power.
High-Quality Audio
When recording vocals, many top record producers will use a dynamic microphone for up-close vocals and a heavily compressed shotgun microphone about 5 feet away. The dynamic mic not only captures part of the final sound, but is also useful for giving the artist something to focus on, keeping a fairly consistent position relative to the shotgun mic. Make sure the next time you have to record high-quality audio for your video/broadcast productions, you have the Vidpro XM-88 13-Piece Unidirectional Condenser Shotgun Microphone Kit at your disposal. Having this shotgun mic on hand for your next vocal session could be the goldmine you’ve been looking for!
A Unidirectional Condenser Shotgun Microphone Kit of High Caliber
Lightweight Yet Durable
Weighing a mere 4.5 ounces, the durable aluminum construction of Vidpro’s XM-88 makes it ideal for indoor and outdoor shooting. The long shotgun mic can be operated by 48V phantom power or with an AA alkaline battery, and comes with a wealth of accessories to deliver the necessary versatility to work with HDSLRs, camcorders, field recorders, handheld recorders, compact cameras and dedicated field mixers. To top it off, a foam-padded carrying case enables safe and easy transport between gigs.
Superb Features
Vidpro’s XM-88 Professional Video & Broadcast Unidirectional Condenser Shotgun Microphone is switchable between cardioid and supercardioid polar patterns which yields enhanced off-axis signal attenuation and focused frontal audio pickup. Meanwhile, the 100 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response provides tonality tailored for intelligible voice reproduction. Finally, a switchable, high-pass filter helps control low-frequency issues, such as the rumbling noise resulting from traffic
Versatile Use
Whether you’re doing a film shoot, promo video, studio recording, ambient sound capture or interview, the XM-88 is the ideal solution. The 14.2” microphone boasts a long interference tube which yields a narrowed pickup area, plus it’s compatible with any professional or amateur camcorder, and any video-capable DSLR/HD-DSLR.
