Wildtronics Pro Mono-Stereo Parabolic Microphone

The amazing all-in-one microphone! Both a professional parabolic microphone and a stereo pair microphone in one.

The innovative Wildtronics Mono-Stereo Parabolic Dish Microphone has 3 outputs, left, right, and parabolic center microphone. The most capable and versatile all-in-one recording system for sale anywhere!

• A lightweight, 22-inch, clear polycarbonate, highly accurate parabolic dish. The dish is flexible, yet rigid enough to maintain critical shape, and thick enough for good rear sound isolation. Polycarbonate is a virtually unbreakable plastic that can withstand temperature extremes. Available in the Standard 0.060 inch thick or the Feather Light 0.030 inch thick rollable version.
• Very low noise mono parabolic mic array. The microphone array, by itself, has a noise floor of just 10dBA, which rivals standard microphones that cost >$1000. Low mic noise allows you to hear faint sounds that would normally be lost in the noise of lesser microphones.
• Two additional, forward facing, low noise (12dBA), matched stereo microphones on separate channels allow wide angle (180 degree) ambient recording. No other “stereo” parabolic microphone offers this capability. The stereo pair is shielded from the parabolic dish focal point, therefore are unaffected by the parabolic reflector. This gives a nice, spacious stereo image.
• Patent pending integral Booster Discs increase the gain to that of a 30-inch dish. This technology also improves low frequency response by eliminating the well known “bass dip” phenomenon, achieving superior sound quality. All competing parabolic microphones have a distinctive bass response dip (500-1000Hz), with accompanying peaks and dips at higher frequencies, causing a tinny sound.
• Both balanced XLR and 3.5mm outputs are on the back panel, and you can even use the outputs simultaneously to connect multiple equipment.
• Built-in, metal 1/4-20 threads in the base of the handle allows solid, reliable, and easy mounting of the Parabolic Microphone to a tripod.
• Power the microphone using your equipment’s phantom power or the internal, replaceable 9V battery.
• A foam suspension system reduces handling noise and dampens the dish. The suspension system is a carefully thought out design that isolates major components, and not only a cushioned hand grip. Nothing makes any creaking sounds when the unit is moved during use.
• Weighing just 2 lbs 4 oz (1 lb 12 oz w/ Feather Light Dish), the lightweight unit assembles and disassembles into three smaller pieces in under a minute for ease of transport and travel. The dish is flexible so that it may be “rolled” to fit into luggage and carrying cases.
• 80 PPI (pores per inch) pro grade windscreen included.
• Designed and tested to withstand severe temperature and humidity extremes.
• Shielded throughout to reduce the effects of EMI/RFI, even from cell phones.
• Optional Accessory Bars and the Secondary Windscreen can be used to extend the usability of this model.

Wildtronics Pro Universal Parabolic Microphone

Obtain the benefits of our Pro Series parabolas using your own preferred microphone.

The Wildtronics Universal Parabolic Kit is for professionals who prefer to use their existing omni-directional microphone in our advanced parabolic systems.

• Allows you to securely mount most cylindrical Omni-Directional Microphones. A microphone with a 10dBA noise floor is required to yield results similar to our models that include microphones. See below for recommended microphones.
• A lightweight, 22-inch, clear polycarbonate, highly accurate parabolic dish. The dish is flexible, yet rigid enough to maintain critical shape, and thick enough for good rear sound isolation. Polycarbonate is a virtually unbreakable plastic that can withstand temperature extremes. Available in the Standard 0.060 inch thick or the Feather Light 0.030 inch thick rollable version.
• Patent pending integral Booster Discs increase the gain to that of a 30-inch dish. This technology also improves low frequency response by eliminating the well known “bass dip” phenomenon, achieving superior sound quality. All competing parabolic microphones have a distinctive bass response dip (500-1000Hz), with accompanying peaks and dips at higher frequencies, causing a tinny sound.
• Your microphone is mounted in the correct, inward-facing orientation to obtain maximum signal gain and frequency response.
• Easily and visually adjust the microphone to the parabolic focal point or defocus if needed. Competing universal parabolas leave you guessing to find and maintain the perfect focus.
• Weighing just 2 lbs 7 oz (1 lb 15 oz w/ Feather Light Dish),the lightweight unit very quickly assembles and disassembles into just three major components, with all captive hardware, for ease of transport and travel. The dish is flexible so that it may be “rolled” to fit into luggage and carrying cases.
• A foam suspension system reduces handling noise and dampens the dish. The suspension system is a carefully thought out design that isolates major components, and not only a cushioned hand grip. Nothing makes any creaking sounds when the unit is moved during use.
• An accessory mounting provision on the handle, allows adding our accessory bar kits that can greatly increase versatility by being able to directly mount recorders, cameras, transmitters, etc.
• The ability to add our Secondary Windscreen accessory, which allows use in winds up to 20MPH, while still maintaining a clear view through the dish to target your subjects.
• Built-in, metal 1/4-20 threads in the base of the handle allows solid, reliable, and easy mounting of the Parabolic Microphone to a tripod and use of our Accessory Bar-1 Kit in creative ways.
