The E522B with stereo XY setup capsules arrangement makes it easy to record in stereo and get a realistic, spacious capture at a live event. Working very well with a camcorder or a ?ash recorder, the microphone comes with a cable with 1/8" mini stereo plug allowing users to place the microphone closer to performers to increase recording quality. Its switchable low cut ?lter will reduce wind noise and stage rumbling. It is powered by one AA alkaline battery that can last for hundreds of hours of use.
