VT500WATER
Perfectly intelligible and neutral voice reproduction is the top priority with the VT500WATER and is made possible by the high-end capsule used. Of course, the microphone is also optimised for wearing under clothing and has therefore been established in the film production sector for many years.
The VT500WATER is also waterproof to IPX-7 (1m under water for 30 minutes), which makes it ideal for use in wet environments. Despite this feature, the VT500WATER sounds the same as the normal VT500.
Thanks to injection moulding, the microphone is extremely robust and shock-resistant. The cable is moulded directly into the capsule housing, which makes it virtually impossible to pull out.
The RF-protected microphone capsule prevents interference from RF signals and the particularly flexible connection cable ensures that handling noise is eliminated.
The VT500WATERÂ is available with various plugs for connection to the most common wireless systems & recorders.

I was the sound designer Karen Katz was mixing for when we used your VT500WATER microphones. Our entire sound team was impressed by the durability and sound quality of the microphone. The actor who wore the microphone sounded the same on your product as he did on his main microphone which cost about $200 more. The only reason he didn't wear the VT500WATER for the entire show was the size of the element made it difficult to hide two of them in his hair. However, I do not know another microhone that would have held up to a down pour of water while an actor sang. Very impressive. We are considering trying them on future productions of Disney's Aladdin for actors who sweat out other microphones.
"That mic got us (Ken Travis designing, me mixing) through a new musical where the Act1 finale would have come to a dead halt if the mic went out. Thank you so much for a great product."
