They look very useful for film/TV, as well as corporate events and presentations. Somehow I doubt something like this will catch on for theatre, simply because of the fact that it can't be headworn, and maybe because it's only available with an omni pattern. And it's obviously not appropriate for live music.
One of the things that would concern me is the security of the connection. It looks like it would be really easy for this to get popped off during a show. I also would be concerned about the reliability of the connections after being connected and disconnected repeatedly.
And forgive me for saying so, the tone of your post, your first post incidentally, reads kind of like a press release. Since you aren't trying to sell anything, it's not really a commercial post, but I honestly can't tell if you A)work for the company and are trying to promote the product by posting here, or B)are just a really good writer. Or maybe a little of both I guess.

Indeed a very interesting and admirable concept. Yes it is an omni directional design geared mainly for film/broadcast/live P.A. (excluding vocal performance/singing) The PIN MIC is currently being utilized on a few television programs including but not limited to "ER" "SCRUBS" and "Entertainment Tonight" to name a few. I am truely confident that in the very near future, this lav mic will be seen (Not seen) all over television. I am not attempting to sell the product directly. I am simply putting out the good word to the people who will soon benifit from this unique "Elegant Solution" to the common lav.

Sean,
What is your connection to this product? You are talking like a press release. If you are not a mouthpiece or salesman for this product then you must be a very "interesting" person to have a conversation with.

That's generally what differentiates spam from acceptable commercial posts on most forum. If you're an active participant who occasionally posts an ad and is honest that it's an ad up front, it's no problem. Fellow community members tend to get royally pissed when you show up out of the blue, plug a product, and then vanish into the ethers.
Of course, I'm only a member, not staff here, so I can only tell you that this is my opinion/advice.
FWIW,
Andy

"Oh, but this place is called 'product review', I'm not doing anything wrong!"
Oh, yes, you are. Again, the deal-breaker is that you are associated with the product. This area is for users not affiliated with the product in any way as in the post I made about the new Yamaha SPX-2000 several months back. I'm a Kombat Audio guy and a buddy of mine brought his new SPX-2000 by a gig for me to play with and I wrote about that experience here. You are, indirectly or otherwise, connected with the sale and promotion of this product. That is one thing in itself, but you also failed to make mention of this when you originally posted. Most everyone here will consider that dishonest and mis-leading. Period. It's really too bad, too, because your product looks interesting. But rules are rules are rules are rules. Actually, since the moderators of this forum have asked participants to refrain from moderating posts, I'm breaking a few rules myself in doing this. But I just can't help myself when I see such a flagrant violation of the rules going on here.
Don't be surprised to see this entire topic deleted by the moderators very soon. My apologies for my part of the rule-breaking today..
Respectfully,
Geri O

No I did not read. Perhaps I should have. I suppose this is the end of this topic. I only expected positive response to this subject and my mail is now consumed with negative comment. The true audio professional will study the subject and hopefully benefit from the knowledge gained from it. Saying that I will no longer post comment on this topic. No harm intended. -S |
So now anyone that responded to this is not a true audio professional. I hope your last two sentences are true.
