As the most powerful microphone on the market, the HGM-1 has finally allowed reporters to record the people needed, without the troublesome background noise. Made with computer recording in mind (Audiosync, Eclipse, StenoCAT etc...) the HGM-1 will get you at least triple the audio pickup of the lesser microphones on the market. Most computers and tape recorders come with an inexpensive mic that will only pickup voices from 2 to 3 feet. There's a number of reasons for this, such as lack of power to the mic (no battery). If your mic doesn't use a battery, then its made for dictating (speaking within 2-3 feet of it). The HGM-1 utilizes a hi-power battery which lasts 600 hours and the mic actually tracks voices up to 45 feet away while filtering out background noise such as air conditioning & paper shuffling. What makes the HGM-1 so special is that is utilizes an hearing aid IC chip to actively track the human voice, the only one in the world. Thanks to the super small size of the microphone, you can conceal it nearly anywhere.
