Overview
Product description from Audio-Technica
The waterproof BP880R contact microphone is ideal for sports broadcasters, filmmakers, and other audio specialists eager to enhance their productions with special sound effects. Built to pick up the impact and surface vibrations created by skaters, skiers, swimmers, and other athletes, the BP880R is the perfect tool for immersing home viewers in all the action. It’s also an excellent choice for applications beyond sports, such as capturing foley sound effects for film and video projects or picking up audio details during theater performances. Because the microphone only picks up impacts and vibrations it has very little sensitivity to airborne sound waves. Therefore, it naturally provides sound effects without ambient noise.
The phantom-powered BP880R features a high-sensitivity piezoelectric sensor and internal preamplifier, enabling it to transmit clear signals over long cable runs: Since the microphone’s fixed 20 m (65.6') cable has a low-impedance output, it can be extended to greater lengths using balanced cables.
Highlights
- Waterproof contact microphone is designed to pick up impact and surface vibrations even when submerged in water or ice, installed in flooring, or buried underground*
- Ideal for capturing key sonic details in sports broadcasting, film, field recording, and other applications to enhance the immersive effect of audio
- Fixed 20 m (65.6') waterproof cable with XLR-M output connector**
- Corrosion-resistant DZR brass microphone body and waterproof cable are built to withstand the rigors of daily use in harsh environments (e.g., deployment in water, ice, and earth)
- Through holes for mounting with screws and nuts or with zip ties, and a 1/4" threaded hole for mounting with a single screw
