This microphone is always out of stock - looking to get one when i can. Thank you for another great video, David!

[@dphnssessions]

THank you for this review

[@spinosound]

Cool video David! Thanks for sharing. Is this microphone magenetic or you need to glue to the surfaces with that blue thing?

[@daviddumaisaudio]

It's not magnetic. I use reusable sticky tac to glue it to surfaces. It's pretty inexpensive and last a long time.

[@spinosound]

Great to know, David. Thank you!☀️

[@cataclysmblackarchives8813]

Huh, I thought something like that would go for thousands of dollars. What would you recommend to make the recording sound less noticable? I mean how do you make it so the clips don’t sound recorded?

[@deckling823]

is that gum attached to the mic? that blue thing?

[@daviddumaisaudio]

it's reusable sticky tac.

[@LooseCanon413]

Chassis. Pronounced like CHASS-see. It’s of French origin, which is why it’s pronounced that way.

[@daviddumaisaudio]

Ah ok. Thank you!
