help Sennheiser ME 2 FAQ

What type of connector does the Sennheiser ME 2 lavalier microphone use?

The Sennheiser ME 2 typically terminates in a locking 3.5mm mini-jack specifically designed to plug into Sennheiser's wireless bodypack transmitters, like the SK 100. It is crucial to verify the connector type, as older versions used a standard 3.5mm jack while some systems require different pin configurations.

Can I plug the Sennheiser ME 2 directly into my camera or phone?

No, because it is an electret condenser microphone, the ME 2 requires plug-in power from a dedicated receiver or transmitter bodypack to operate. Plugging the locking jack directly into a standard smartphone or camera without the appropriate wireless system will not capture audio.

What is the sound profile of the Sennheiser ME 2?

The ME 2 is a high-quality, professional-grade lavalier designed for broadcast and documentary use, offering crisp, clear speech capture in a tiny, unobtrusive package. It features an omnidirectional pickup pattern, ensuring consistent audio levels even when the subject turns their head.

What is the difference between the Sennheiser ME 2 and the ME 2-II?

The updated ME 2-II features an improved capsule that provides a slightly richer sound and better noise rejection compared to the original. The newer version is specifically optimized to match the frequency response and transmission of Sennheiser's Evolution Wireless G3 and G4 systems.
