Hollyland Technology has announce the Lark C1, an ultra-compact wireless microphone system that can be plugged into mobile device.
With a range of up to 650ft (200m), the Lark C1 plugs into a phone to record audio, and playback without unplugging. The transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) are usable while the device is charging, and the receiver can be connected to a power source to charge a phone during operation.
Available in both black or white, the product is available as an iOS version with Lightning connector on the receiver (with one or two transmitters) and an Android version with USB-C connector on the receiver (with two transmitters).
The transmitters can be clipped onto clothing like a wireless lavalier microphone, for professional vocal recording. The system’s 48kHz, 16-bit sound capture gives rich details from all directions, delivering a frequency response from 20Hz up to 20kHz. In the iOS version, the MFi-certified Lightning interface ensures uncompromising sound quality and reliability. The audio processing and Active Noise Cancellation allow removal of background noise.
As well as mobile phones, the Lark C1’s Android version can add wireless microphone capability to other products, such as the DJI Action 3 and Action 2, making it a legitimate vlogging microphone.
With two transmitter units in use, the Lark C1 Duo features an ultra-long duration of 32 hours from a fully-charged charging case, with each transmitter operating for eight hours each time for a full day of uninterrupted audio recording. The entire system is usable while charging, including the smartphone.
