Floating structure that doesn’t completely fix the microphone to the body reduces noise

In conjunction to implementing the high-sound quality of the circuit itself, external noise measures for the TM-2X were also explored. Extra attention was placed on the noise characteristics of a DSLR camera, with various measures implemented to counterattack that. A floating structure was employed for the mic unit and the shoe mount section, reducing handling noise from the mic unit. In addition, a noise isolation arm was included in order to physically reduce operational noise by keeping a distance from the noise source. If the operation noise from the camera’s auto-focus is an issue, mounting the noise isolation arm will reduce such noises. Other attachments include the low-cut filter, which eliminates low-frequency noise and the fur windscreen that reduces wind noise when filming outdoors.

Easy high-quality sound recording available without needing complex setup

Despite having functionality on par with professional acoustic equipment, the TM-2X is extremely easy to use. The only preparation required is to mount it on a camera and connect the stereo mini-jack plug into the camera’s external port. All you have to do after this is set the camera’s recording level in accordance with the film’s target subject; you are then free to enjoy filming at a level of sound quality that surpasses filming with a camera alone. Because the TM-2X is an analog acoustic device that does not contain any digital circuits, it can be used for other applications than with DSLRs, including mirrorless SL cameras, compact digital cameras, and video cameras.
