The L1 omni lavalier microphone represents a new era in high-fidelity audio capture. Featuring the breakthrough Sonaura™ MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems) capsule technology, the L1 sets a new industry benchmark for performance, consistency, and environmental resilience.

The ground-breaking Sonaura™ silicon technology replaces traditional FET-based designs with a patented encapsulated diaphragm. Every L1 unit is matched in both sensitivity and frequency response to within 0.5dB, offering production mixers and sound designers absolute repeatability across multiple talent microphones.

In combination with the Lectrosonics DSSM digital micro transmitter, the L1 offers both high- and low-sensitivity modes, selectable in the transmitter menu. Designed for the harshest production environments, the L1 is fundamentally impervious to moisture. The combination of the Sonaura™ capsule's inherent properties, a specialized hydrophobic internal coating, and hydrostatic pressure-sealing via 0.4mm laser-drilled cap ports allows the microphone to remain functional even while completely submerged.

Compatibility: this first version is black only, with a Lemo connector, and dual sensitivity when used with the Lectrosonics DSSM digital water-tight transmitter. It is not compatible with the SSM or with any other Lemo-terminated transmitter. Additional models will be available offering compatibility over a wide range of transmitters.
