Combining a high-quality Sennheiser capsule with a broadcast-quality Flash recorder, the ground-breaking HHB FlashMic has
quickly become established as the portable recording device of choice for
international broadcasters, including ORF in Austria, the BBC in Britain,
and WDR in Germany.
Now HHB has expanded the FlashMic range with the introduction of a new
cardioid version - the FlashMic DRM85-C - to accompany the original,
omni-directional FlashMic DRM85.
Both FlashMic models share the same comprehensive feature set, which
includes 1GB Flash memory for up to 18+ hours recording, USB audio data
transfer, a high-quality preamplifier with full manual or automatic gain
control (AGC), an illuminated LCD display and nine user templates which can
be configured externally using the FlashMic Manager software supplied.
As HHB Managing Director, Ian Jones explains, the DRM85-C was developed in
direct response to customer requests. "Some of our broadcast
users have been requesting a more directional FlashMic specifically for use
in environments in which there are high ambient sound levels, such as press
scrums and conflict zones. We're delighted to respond with the cardioid
FlashMic DRM85-C."
Radio journalists cite rugged build quality, ease-of-use, fast file transfer
and instant, one-button recording among the key reasons for the FlashMic's
success.
"When news breaks, the FlashMic provides a convenient, all-in-one, portable
recording solution with no fiddly cables or connectors," continues Jones.
"And it's every bit as easy to transfer audio files to a laptop for editing
and onward transmission."
