Sony has introduced the ECM-L1, a professional-grade Lavalier microphone designed to enhance audio quality for various applications. Building upon the legacy of the ECM-77 series, the ECM-L1 offers exceptional sound pickup performance, reliability, and versatility.

The ECM-L1 features a rigid ceramic capsule with superior vibration properties, ensuring accurate and detailed sound capture. The machined brass exterior suppresses unnecessary resonance, delivering clear and crisp audio. The high-purity OFC cable minimizes audio transmission loss, preserving the integrity of the recorded sound.

Designed for professional use, the ECM-L1 boasts a durable brass housing that protects the microphone from wear and tear. The 2.2 mm diameter cable is resistant to breakage, and the locking ring (when compatible) prevents accidental disconnection from the recording device.

The ECM-L1 supports plug-in power, allowing it to be seamlessly integrated with a wide range of devices equipped with a 3.5 mm microphone input terminal. This versatility makes it suitable for various applications, including cameras, smartphones, wireless microphones, IC recorders, and computers.

The ECM-L1 includes two types of windscreens to reduce wind and pop noise: metal and faux fur. Choose the metal option for a discreet aesthetic or the faux fur option for additional wind noise reduction. The microphone’s compact design and discreet pin style allow for easy attachment to collars or shirts, ensuring a professional appearance on camera.

With the growing number of content creators, there is a rising demand for high-quality audio recordings. The ECM-L1 addresses this need by providing exceptional sound pickup performance, reliability, and versatility. Whether you’re a vlogger, filmmaker, or journalist, the ECM-L1 is a valuable tool for capturing professional-quality audio.

The ECM-L1 will be available in Malaysia from October 2024. Pricing information will be announced closer to the launch date.
