I appreciate the utility of this product but it kills me to spend $800 on a DPA 6060 to have the smallest wire I can get just to slap a bulky accessory on it that prints through a tee shirt.
I have a Tascam TM-10L (DR-10L) and LAV CONCEALER FOR SENNHEISER ME 2 version hasnt work very well. Very noisy under a shirt. What you offer or give advice for me to get better result?
Hi there! Thanks for your comment. Have you tried the techniques in this video? The combination of these products should help you to eliminate a lot of the noise you're hearing. This is because some of the noise could be from friction on the microphones cable, as well as points of contact between the shirt and the person's skin. We have more video's coming soon with more tips and tricks to help you! 💚
Hi there, the metal fabric guard on the front of The Lav Concealer helps to create a space around the end of the microphone's capsule. This helps to maintain the natural frequency response of the microphone. The moleskin itself is also a super thin material so that it's acoustically transparent. Together, these avoid dampening the audio and help capture the highest quality audio possible. Hope this helps!
Absolutely Roberto! The key is using your experience and ears to determine which are the best tools for the challenge in front of you. The fur works great on top of The Lav Concealer for wind noise, but also for clothing noise reduction. 😊
When installing, it's best to start with The Cable Saver 15-20cm away from the mics capsule to allow you to wrap the Lav Mic cable around The Cable Saver enough times. Once it's installed, you can try to move The Cable Saver closer to the microphone's capsule, but we wouldn't necessarily recommend it as increasing the tension on the cable right next to the mic's capsule could decrease your cable's lifespan. Give it a try and let us know how you get on 💚
Hi Sindre, are you using the metalwork with your Lav Concealer? The two different materials should absorb any vibrations on the capsule. This, combined with The Cable Saver and Invisible Lav Covers - Fur Outdoor as demonstrated in the video, should help to tackle other noise. I hope that helps, let us know if you're still experiencing clothing noise! 💚
Chest hair does make a lot of noise, however, we found that if you mount your microphone with The Invisible Lav Covers - Fur Outdoor facing the chest hair, it helps to reduce the scratching of the hair on the microphone's capsule. Give it a try and let us know how you get on! 💚
While a loop is great for strain relief, it does minimal for decoupling. The little that it does do is also dramatically eliminated the tighter the loop gets. You kind of get a two for on strain relief and decoupling with this product but I’m not a fan of the amount of bulk they add when dealing with sheer or fitted wardrobe and costumes.
Hi thank you for your question. The Invisible Lav Cover - Fur Outdoor has been placed behind the button to help prevent any friction noise. Hope this helps ☺️
@@audiorolling The Fur Outdoor Invisible Lav Cover is mainly used to protect the Lav mic against wind noise when using the Lav mics outdoors. As this Lav is being used indoors that extra wind protection over the mics capsule was not necessary and a Moleskin Invisible Lav Cover was used instead. The Fur Outdoor was simply used to create space between the back of the button and the skin to prevent any friction noise from the button. Hope this clears things up ☺️
The Lav Concealer is made for specific microphones. The Lav Concealer matches the contours of these microphones to provide a perfect fit. Which Lav microphone are you using? We can help you find the right one 😁💚
How many times can you wrap a Sanken COS-11? It's cable is thicker and I find I can barely wrap it around 2 times before putting it through the 2nd hole.
You should be able to wrap the COS-11 around The Cable Saver at least 3 times. Don't worry, the cable can handle a few twists as it's a relatively heavy-duty cable. We just don't recommend using The Cable Saver with a Countryman B6 or Sennheiser MKE 1 as the cable's are very delicate and the internal wires could potentially break when any kind of tension is applied to them. I hope this helps 💚
@@bubblebeeindustries what about the MKE2? Is that too thick to use? Also which one is better to prevent clothing noise - the lav concealer or the moleskin tape?
@@khancentrated yes, the MKE2 is fine to use with The Cable Saver, we've used it on the MKE2 with no issues! The Lav Concealer with the metal fabric guard attached at the front will be the best option all-round for mounting and clothing noise reduction, however, to go the extra step further, we recommend using The Lav Concealer in tandem with The Invisible Lav Covers. The Fur Outdoor variation will provide maximum protection against clothing noise, however the moleskin will also do a great job if you want something lower profile. I hope this helps!
@@bubblebeeindustries I’ve tried wrapping the mke2 around the cable saver but it’s way too thick. I went to b and h to show them and they were shocked it didn’t work as well - they said it should work but my cable was thicker than the mke2 they were using. I’m wondering if the mke2 was updated recently because it’s almost impossible to wrap even once around and I don’t want to break the mic
hi @@khancentrated, i'm having the same issue with my MKE2 Golds and the Cable Saver. i tried just wrapping the Cable Saver around the cable but it doesn't work unfortunately and now my cable has massive kinks in it. have you had any luck?

Wow! That is amazing. Thank you for the demonstration.

Great guys. Thanks.
Glad you found it useful Christopher. 😊
Hey guys, did you fully cover the top of the lav when using the moleskin? I would imagine that would dampen the audio a bit?
Hi there, the metal fabric guard on the front of The Lav Concealer helps to create a space around the end of the microphone's capsule. This helps to maintain the natural frequency response of the microphone. The moleskin itself is also a super thin material so that it's acoustically transparent.

Hope this helps!
Instead of using moleskin I could use another fur on top of the lav concealer?
Absolutely Roberto! The key is using your experience and ears to determine which are the best tools for the challenge in front of you. The fur works great on top of The Lav Concealer for wind noise, but also for clothing noise reduction. 😊
how do you prevent noise when using a mic with a different shape, such as the Rode lavalier II ?
Hi, you can apply the same techniques shown in this video to any shape of lavalier microphone!
Would using the Cable Saver 5cm from the mic or even closer be a bad idea?
When installing, it's best to start with The Cable Saver 15-20cm away from the mics capsule to allow you to wrap the Lav Mic cable around The Cable Saver enough times. Once it's installed, you can try to move The Cable Saver closer to the microphone's capsule, but we wouldn't necessarily recommend it as increasing the tension on the cable right next to the mic's capsule could decrease your cable's lifespan.

I'm still getting cloth noise,, it seems like I get vibrations from the concealer that transfer to the mic. Any ideas on how to fix that?
Hi Sindre, are you using the metalwork with your Lav Concealer? The two different materials should absorb any vibrations on the capsule. This, combined with The Cable Saver and Invisible Lav Covers - Fur Outdoor as demonstrated in the video, should help to tackle other noise.
I hope that helps, let us know if you're still experiencing clothing noise! 💚
does chest hair make a lot of noise? i am VERY hairy (and i can't shave because it itches like crazy)
Chest hair does make a lot of noise, however, we found that if you mount your microphone with The Invisible Lav Covers - Fur Outdoor facing the chest hair, it helps to reduce the scratching of the hair on the microphone's capsule. Give it a try and let us know how you get on! 💚
Why not a slip loop instead of the shock absorber?
While a loop is great for strain relief, it does minimal for decoupling. The little that it does do is also dramatically eliminated the tighter the loop gets. You kind of get a two for on strain relief and decoupling with this product but I’m not a fan of the amount of bulk they add when dealing with sheer or fitted wardrobe and costumes.
is there a concealer for Seinheisser ME2-II?
Yes! The Lav Concealer for Sennheiser ME2-II is available at your local BBI dealer or online 💚
why using the fur behind the button?
Hi thank you for your question. The Invisible Lav Cover - Fur Outdoor has been placed behind the button to help prevent any friction noise. Hope this helps ☺️
@@bubblebeeindustries
I mean why not use it directly on the mic capsule?
@@audiorolling The Fur Outdoor Invisible Lav Cover is mainly used to protect the Lav mic against wind noise when using the Lav mics outdoors.

@@bubblebeeindustries thank you and please keep making amazing products.
This shirt is very easy. Try it on a suit Some hard fabrics
We'll add this to our list for future videos, thanks Jay!
