Remote Audio MDR7506ILS-S Modified 7506 Headset Switchable Inline Mic Straight

Low-key talkback on a straight cord suits editors, playback operators, and cart mixers who never want a mic arm in front of the face. The MDR7506ILS-S is a modified Sony MDR-7506 headset fitted with a switchable in-line electret talkback microphone and a straight cable.

The microphone switches between 12-48V phantom power and 5V bias, so one headset works with phantom powered slate and com inputs as well as bias powered inputs on Zaxcom recorders, the Aaton Cantar X3, smart phones, and wireless transmitters. The straight cable terminates in a TA5F connector that Remote Audio's headset adapters convert to whatever the mixer needs.

Instead of a boom in front of the mouth, the in-line version places the mic in the cable just below the chin, so it feels like a standard pair of headphones while still putting the capsule close enough for clean slates and talkback. Remote Audio notes native functionality with the Sound Devices Scorpio and 833 TA5 headset connector.
