Deity W.Lav Micro (Black, w/o adapter) - subminiature lavalier microphone

Deity W.Lav Micro (Black, w/o adapter) - subminiature button microphone

The Deity W.Lav Micro is an extremely small, professional-grade subminiature lavalier microphone (lapel microphone) designed to meet the most demanding requirements of the modern filmmaker and videographer. In today's era of ultra-high-resolution 4K and 8K cameras, concealment is more important than ever. With a capsule measuring just 3mm, the W.Lav Micro is designed to rival the smallest and most expensive high-end microphones on the market, and can be easily concealed in the seams of clothing, buttonholes, or even the hairline.

Important note (w/o adapter): This product version comes with just the Microdot connector and does not include a ready-made microphone-specific adapter (such as 3.5 mm or XLR). The Microdot system makes the microphone extremely flexible: by purchasing the separately sold Deity Microdot adapter, you can adapt the same microphone to any wireless transmitter (e.g. Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Lectrosonics or Deity Theos).

• Feather-thin 3 mm capsule: One of the smallest microphone heads on the market – easy to hide under clothing, completely invisible.
• Ultra-thin and incredibly durable cable: Although the silicone-coated wire is only 1.2 mm in diameter, the synthetic polymers woven into it provide a tensile strength of up to 19 kg (43 lbs).
• Designed for digital wireless devices: The cable's advanced internal RF shielding effectively blocks radio frequency interference and hum caused by modern digital transmitters.
• Minimized handling noise: The soft silicone surface of the microphone cable effectively prevents noise caused by rubbing against clothing from being transmitted to the microphone capsule.
• Natural and consistent sound: The omni-directional pickup pattern ensures clear and uncolored speech sound, even if the speaker moves or turns their head.

Fade the microphone anywhere on your clothing

The Deity W.Lav Micro takes the hassle out of difficult on-set costumes. With its ultra-thin and flexible cord, it can be slipped under tight shirts or even taped directly to the skin without the performer feeling it. The microphone is temperature-resistant up to 105°C (221°F) and is designed to work perfectly with the industry’s most popular concealment accessories, such as Rycote, URSA Straps, or Hide-a-mic.

The classic black color makes it easier to hide the microphone and its cable in dark accessories and shadows, which speeds up the sound department's work during filming.

Tip for online store customers: Remember to order a Deity Microdot adapter that matches your wireless system (for example, a locking 3.5 mm adapter for Sennheiser/Deity devices or a Lemo/TA4F adapter for professional devices) to accompany the microphone so that you can connect the microphone to your transmitter.
