Review: The media could not be loaded. Works equally well with an Olympus WS853 and equally so with an older Sony ICD audio recorder. It is worth saying it does need an audio recorder to provide between 2 and 10 volts DC to the microphone's plug tip - This feature is known known as 'plug in power' and is found on many portable audio / interview/ conference/ dictating machine type recorders. Check your user guide if unsure. In the WS853 user guide it says "Microphones with plug-in power supplies can be used". On the Sony ICD it says "When a plug in power type microphone is connected, power is automatically supplied to the microphone from the IC recorder. So all is well there The ME34 mic recording is hugely clearer than internal microphones when close up. With the microphone pointed towards a distant speaker with closer nearby background noise it does somewhat better than Olympus or Sony internal microphones managed. It makes the recording more intelligible but obviously the 4m distance 'next room' test is pretty tough. I put a little recording together to demonstrate this in an echo filled kitchen setting with other speech nearby to the side, above and rear. The test used maximum recording sensitivity and with low frequency filters and other such settings off in each case. This recording was on the SONY ICD but results on the Olympus were similar. I used the Sony for the video file to show it works for either brand as you would guess it works ok for Olympus recorders.

Review: Does the job...small, compact and once you zone it down to what you want it for it cuts out outside noise. Really could do with a small carrying bag like the recorder has though.
