The SmallRig S 60 Wireless Microphone (USB-C Version) has just dropped. It promises to blend cutting-edge technology with sleek design to offer creators an unrivalled audio recording experience. It could be the ultimate small audio solution for content creators on the go.
The microphone is tailored specifically for mobile content creation. It’s incredibly lightweight (7.8g/0.27oz) and tiny, and despite its small footprint, it delivers exceptional sound quality with a long transmission range.
Key Features
Compact and Discreet: The SmallRig S 60 is small and lightweight, making it easy to wear without drawing attention. Its button-sized design can be clipped on clothing, hung around the neck, or held in hand, offering multiple ways to carry it.
Stable Signal Transmission: With an LDS antenna, the microphone can transmit sound up to 300 meters (984 feet), ensuring a steady connection even at a distance. This makes it suitable for outdoor shoots or larger spaces.
Directional Microphone for Clear Audio: The built-in microphone is designed to pick up sound directly from the source, reducing background noise and delivering clearer recordings.
High-Quality Sound Recording: Equipped with a DSP chip, the microphone supports 48 kHz / 16-bit recording, providing good sound quality. A built-in noise reduction feature helps minimize unwanted background sounds at the touch of a button.
Long Battery Life: The transmitter can run for up to 11 hours on a single charge. Paired with the charging case, this can be extended to nearly 45 hours, making it ideal for extended filming sessions.
Adjustable Gain: The microphone allows you to adjust the gain in three levels, so you can control the audio levels based on your environment or needs.
Mute Function: A double tap on the transmitter quickly mutes the microphone, a handy feature for live broadcasts or interviews when you need to stop recording momentarily.
Mobile Charging Support: The receiver, which plugs into your mobile device via USB-C, allows for charging your phone while you’re recording, ensuring you don’t run out of power mid-filming.
