EARSIGHT THUMB/BBG PAIR- Cardioid (for Rycote BBG)
Product Details
Thumb designed for larger windshields

- 4 size available (20, 21, 22 and 25mm diameter) to fit on every BBG model available

If you're looking for lightweight, sturdy microphones with high sensitivity and low background noise, look no further...

The Earsight Thumb series features a design commonly used in field recording, similar in size to Sennheiser's MKH8040, but at a fraction of the price. The idea was to equip your recorder with a pair of high-quality microphones, like a custom pocket recorder. Thumb was born, or rather, the name was easily found thanks to its shape.

These microphones are so flexible that you can mount them on a stereo bar with standard clips like standard SDC microphones or you can plug them directly into your recorder and avoid to carry a lot of accessories.

Pas encore essayés mais j’en ai déjà une paire, très silencieux avec de bons préamps. Service impeccable, enfin à part très bien, rien à dire. Merci Laurent

These mics are just great. It fits perfectly with the BBG. I tested them on the Island of Ouessant (France) this week, to record wind and sea ambiances, they magnificently reproduced the depth of field of the landscape.

I really like the microphones. The sound quality is very good. I often use them for ambiance recording combined with other mics in a classical concert setting. I plug them straight into a Zoom H1 XLR or Zoom F3. This eliminates cables and thus time, and sync the audio in post. The only thing is that they are not very strong. The housing broke. I only used it for 4 concerts. I had emailed the company, but I have not heard from them for a week now. I taped it back together, and the mic still works, but it should not fall apart. I hope I can have it fixed properly at some point.
