Review: Bought this to fix in the end of a Sony ICD-UX512, a small 1x4x10cm digital recorder, because the built in stereo mics pick up too much surrounding 'clatter'. This Olympus ME 52 slots neatly in the end of the recorder and no messy trailing wires or clips. it rotates and swivels so you can place the recorder flat ant the mic will be generally in the direction you want. Or hand holding the recorder you can point the mike where you want and hold the recorder so its screen is visible and controls are easy to operate. The mic picks up its power from the recorder ok. the sound is a major improvement, which is a relief. pointing at wife and daughter on computer chatting about 20ft away they cam out clear and keyboard 'tapping' was appropriate level and no sudden intrusion of background clatter or noise. when i spoke [from behind] the voice was clearly louder but not a lot or excessively so. I like this as it balances sound reasonably well. Note recording is mono using left channel.
