The Sennheiser MKE 1 is the brand’s smallest professional lavalier microphone, with a 3.3 mm capsule. It suits musicals, live shows and broadcasting where the microphone has to be virtually invisible. A protective membrane keeps sweat out and the thin, rugged cable transmits very little handling noise. Black version, open end. It handles up to 142 dB SPL.
A special gauze and a multi-purpose cap catch moisture before it reaches the capsule, so the microphone picks up only what it should. Two frequency response caps change the treble character and the cable with its moulded anti-kink sleeve withstands daily fitting and removal. This version is black and the cable has an open end, so the sound engineer can solder on the connector that matches their own transmitter.

A newly developed, moisture-resistant protective membrane lets the MKE 1 stand up to harsh live conditions better than other clip-on microphones.
The 3.3 mm capsule is easy to hide in the hair, behind the ear or under clothing.
The high maximum sound pressure level handles singing and loud speech without distortion.
Full, natural sound with clear, pleasant treble and low ambient noise.
The thin, robust cable is flexible and transmits minimal handling noise.
