8 Lav Mic Hiding Tips for Video using The Lav Concealer

We spend a day with some travel vloggers using The Rode Rodelink Filmmaker kit for their sound recording - a popular and good value wireless lav option for video production. We go through some different ways of fitting the Rode Lav mic using The Lav Concealer for Rode. Mounting the lav mic effectively is crucial to getting good sound and achieving a high signal to noise ratio in your recordings. In turn, this gives the sound editor much more to work with in post, making it easier to achieve a better sound for your videos. Here are 8 tips and tricks to help with just that.
The Bubblebee Lav Concealer is available for the Sanken COS-11, DPA Microphones 4060, 4071 and new 6060 microphones, the RØDE Lavalier and the Sennheiser MKE 2. This is a soft, pliable mount covers many different mounting options, moulding itself to the surface and isolating the mic capsule from vibration and friction noise. It makes hiding mics easier and will give you better sound.

This is by far the best video Bubblebee has ever made. I own these products for COS-11 mic and have used them with good results. This video shows mounting methods I have not tried yet but now I will. Thanks.

RallenMan wow, thanks! We put a lot of effort into planning and producing this, so it means a lot to us that it has been useful to you (and hopefully others too). Really kind of you. :)

Wow, this has got me rethinking how we can use lavalier microphones more in our projects. This looks, and sounds, like a spectacular product.

incredibly helpful! I own the concealer but didn't quite understand the circumstances I would use it under. actually showing the application process will make me more likely to break it out on set. thank you! 🥳

Just bought a couple of these after probing the mind of a professional sound guy on a shoot. He showed me these, makes so much sense!

[@bubblebeeindustries]

That's great to hear! Let us know how you get on 💚

Heyyyy city! Vienna :D

I just got you DPA 6060 concealer kit in the mail! I've noticed they don't come with a clothing clip though? Is the clothing clip too large to fit on the 6060 Concealer? Is there a way to purchase just the clothing clip separately?

[@bubblebeeindustries]

Hey Richie, yes the 6060 Lav Concealer is intended for use with tape. Unfortunately the mass of the rubber (as the point of this setup is to be small) is not enough to hold the tension created by a clothing clip without becoming misshapen, or losing grip as the surface area is so small. Be sure to watch our full LC 6060 guide here for more info: kzbin.info/www/bejne/inyrlINnich3ldk Thanks for the support and let us know how you get on :)

Wonder if you have one that fits the jk mic-j 044

[@bubblebeeindustries]

Unfortunately, as The Lav Concealers are made to match the specific contours of each microphone, we don't have a Lav Concealer for the Jk Mic-J 044 at the moment. However, check out our Invisible Lav Covers which do a great job at hiding microphones under clothing and eliminating clothes rustle!
