Product Details

The world's first plug & rec ORTF microphone

Handheld recorders are wonderful — pocketable and great-sounding. The catch is the setup: tripod, cables, orientation… it all takes time. And when you want to catch the action, "the decisive moment" as in photography, you need to react fast. So I designed a plug & rec microphone you can whip out in a second.

It's the first high-quality pocket ORTF pair on the market — no stereo bar, no cables, no angle to set. A simple combo that turns your recorder into a genuinely powerful ORTF rig, with a choice of two capsules. Born from a real need, now within everyone's reach.

ORTF geometry

  • 110° angle between the capsules
  • 17 cm spacing between the capsules
