U.S. Pat: D786,220 and 9,706,285
EMBRACE microphones are custom-fit ear mounted lavalier solutions for TV and film, theatre, corporate and other applications where the microphone is ideally camouflaged, yet still maintain consistent placement from the mouth even with head movement.
LIGHT Like a Lav
HOLD Like a Headset
The patented EMBRACE Microphones are buildable and customizable mic’ing solutions new to the audio industry. The EMBRACE microphones are engineered for concealing, but its mounting system keeps the mic placement consistent to the mouth as with traditional headset style mics. This innovation in custom mic’ing is the best of lightweight and low-profile lavs combined with the consistent placement of earmounted microphones.
Imagine What You Can Do with EMBRACE!
TV Studio
"... it used to take a lot of time to wire an actor ─ EMBRACE mics have allowed them to wire the actors so much faster.”
Location Sound
“If you are looking to upgrade the lavs in your kit and were thinking about buying Voice Technologies, Sanken or DPA … give a listen to the CO-8WL. At the very least, totally buy an EMBRACE or two … I hate trying to moleskin/tape a lav behind an actresses ear and hide it with her hair."
Instrument
Clever violin mic'ing: "It was stunning! Certainly live, it was amazing. The recording engineer couldn't believe how great [EMBRACE] sounded."
Theatre
“EMBRACE provides us with a method to better secure the microphone that is less clunky and less heavy than past solutions.”
