Designed for mobile journalists, videographers, and vloggers, the Comica Audio CVM-WM200A PRO two-person, camera-mount wireless lavalier microphone system is a complete solution with backup recording capabilities that allows you to record dialogue, interviews, and speech to your video rig. Record mic- or line-level sources from up to 394' away, and run audio to your camera, DSLR, or camcorder while monitoring through headphones in real time. Locking connections on the receiver and transmitter eliminate unintended cable disconnects.
The system features two omnidirectional lavalier microphones that plug into two bodypack transmitters, each with the ability to create backup recordings to a microSD card; maximum card capacity is 128 GB. Also included is a two-channel receiver with adjustable antennas, multiple cables, mounting accessories, and a carry case—basically everything you need for seamless audio integration into your video production setup. Its 96 channels allow interference-free signal quality and easy setup thanks to auto-scan channel selection and automatic IR synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
Two Channels in One Receiver
- The CVM-WM200A PRO features a two-channel receiver with dual external antennas, allowing you to save space on your shooting rig by using a single receiver to simultaneously accept signals from two transmitters. Use the included shoe-mount accessory to mount it on your camera, DSLR, or camcorder. A belt clip for the receiver is also supplied.
- Both antennas on the receiver rotate 180° so you can optimize reception
- The high-resolution backlit LCD screen shows vital information such as battery status for the receiver and both transmitters, audio level, and group/channel selection.
- Select mono output mode when using a single transmitter or recording signal from both transmitters to a mono camera input. Switch to stereo output mode to record each transmitter to a separate audio channel (Group A to the left channel, Group B to the right channel).
- The CVM-WM200A PRO includes two audio cables—one 3.5mm and one 3.5mm to XLR—for connecting the receiver's volume-adjustable 3.5mm line output to the input of your camera, DSLR, or camcorder. A separate 3.5mm port is provided for real-time monitoring through headphones.
Two Transmitters with Lavalier Microphones and Backup Recording
- The CVM-WM200A PRO includes two bodypack transmitters and two lavalier microphones for miking two subjects at the same time. Each microphone's locking 3.5mm plug screws into place to prevent accidental disconnection.
- The transmitters allow you to record backup audio to a microSD card. Cards up to 128 GB are supported.
- High-speed data transfer is supported through the transmitter's USB Type-C port.
- By utilizing omnidirectional polar patterns, the lav mics offer 360° sound pickup, which is more forgiving to your subjects' head movements. Fit the supplied windbusters on the lav mics to significantly reduce noise from wind and rustling of clothes.
- Each transmitters' 3.5mm input can accept line-level signal should you need to do a camera hop, route the output of a mixer, or field recorder into the transmitter's line input to wirelessly stream the audio mix to the receiver.
