When To Use A Lavalier Microphone

This also allows you to isolate various audio tracks and mix them or remove any background unwanted noise.

Wherever you use a lapel mic, remember that it records mainly the audio of the person who carries it. So, if you want additional sounds, I recommend using several lapel microphones.

You Need Freedom To Move Around

If you want to move freely on stage or prefer to hide your personal mic, then a Lavalier mic is a great option.

Remember that a Lav mic uses batteries as a power source, so you must remove it frequently to change the batteries.

Musical And Theater Performances

While Lavalier mics aren't used so often in the filmmaking industry, they are a popular piece of kit in theater and musical gigs.

Also, news programs and TV programs often use Lav mics if the presenters need to have their hands free.

Single Handed

If you are only a one-person band or crew and don't have a hand free to hold a boom mic, then a Lavalier microphone can be a great alternative.

You can clip the Lavalier mic on anywhere and record your audio.
