How To Set Up A Lavalier Microphone

Step 1: Attach The Microphone

First, you will need to find the correct position where you can attach the Lav mic.

Place the mic around 30-40cm away from the mouth. Avoid any rustling noise by attaching the mic to a collar, V-neck shirt, or suit jacket.

Step 2: Tuck In The Cable

Whether you have a wireless or wired Lavalier mic, it's ideal to hide the cables. Try to tuck the cables under the arm or under clothing to conceal them.

Step 3: Connect The Lavalier Mic To Your Device

Regardless if it's a wired or wireless microphone, you need a compatible connection depending on the device you're using.
