BUBBLEBEE LAV COVERS AND MOUNTS

LAV CONCEALER

Bubblebee’s Lav Concealer is available for a range of specific lavalier microphones including those from DPA, Rode, Sanken, Sennheiser, Shure and Countryman.

Manufactured from biodegradable, ‘soft-pliable’, 100% natural rubber, the lavalier microphone concealers have been designed to discreetly mount a microphone on clothing, such as a tie or shirt fastening, or collar. Along with inherent properties that protects the mic capsule from vibration, a wire fabric guard prevents the capsule from touching the fabric of the clothing to prevent unwanted noise resulting in ‘clearer sound recordings’. An included clip allows the user to mount from the front, back and top or bottom.
