Field Kit · Mobile Recording
Field Duo
Professional interview gear for the mobile journalist. Two rugged dynamic microphones and a dual-channel recorder, built for fast deployment from street corners to studio benches.
What It Is
A complete mobile recording kit: two matched dynamic microphones, a dual-channel portable interface, heavy-duty XLR cables, foam windscreens, and a padded carry case. Everything you need to capture broadcast-quality interviews wherever the story takes you.
Who It Serves
Journalists, podcasters, and documentary producers who work outside the studio. If your recordings happen on pavements, in cafés, at press conferences, or on long transit rides, the Field Duo is built for your workflow.
What You Get
Two separate audio tracks, battery-powered recording to SD card, and a kit that fits into a single shoulder bag. No laptop required, no mains power required, no complex setup between you and the interview.

Chapter 01 · Durability
Built for the Road
Field recording demands a different kind of durability. The microphones in the Field Duo are dynamic models, naturally more resistant to moisture, impact, and high-volume environments than studio condensers. They are built to be handheld, with internal pop filters that minimise wind noise and handling thumps.
Whether you are recording on a windy street corner in Spitalfields or in a humid press tent, the Field Duo keeps working when condenser gear would be packing up.
Chapter 02 · Two-Person Recording
Separate Tracks, Separate Voices
The Duo configuration is built for the standard interviewer-interviewee format. With two matched microphones and a dual-input interface, you record both sides of the conversation on separate tracks. This gives you complete control in post-production: balance the levels independently, clean up one voice without affecting the other, and isolate problematic moments without surgery on a mixed stereo file.
For podcasters, this means cleaner edits. For journalists, it means you can boost a quiet source without amplifying the room noise from your own mic.
Chapter 03 · Compact and Lightweight
One Bag, One Setup
Every component in the Field Duo was selected for portability. The entire kit fits into a small padded shoulder bag, small enough to carry on public transport or through airport security without checking a second case. Despite its small footprint, the kit delivers audio quality that far exceeds what is possible with a smartphone or a basic handheld recorder.
No rolling case, no fragile accessories, no extra backpack. Just the bag on your shoulder.
Chapter 04 · Power
Battery-Powered Versatility
The Field Duo interface runs for hours on internal batteries or via a standard USB power bank. You never have to hunt for a power outlet in the middle of an interview. The recorder writes directly to a high-speed SD card, so your session is standalone and reliable from the moment you press record.
No laptop in the chain, no driver conflicts, no dependence on mains power. Just batteries, a card, and the interview in front of you.
Chapter 05 · Quick Deployment
Plug In, Set Levels, Record
In the field, you sometimes have seconds before an interview starts. The Field Duo uses simple XLR connections and intuitive controls that let you start recording almost instantly. There are no menus to dig through, no complex routing to configure, no firmware to update. Just plug in the microphones, set your input levels, and press record.
If you have ever lost a source because you were three menus deep when they started talking, this kit is the answer.
Chapter 06 · Loud Environments
Cutting Through the Crowd
Dynamic microphones are excellent at rejecting background noise. In a busy press conference or a crowded trade show floor, the Field Duo focuses on the person speaking directly into the microphone, significantly reducing the wash of ambient crowd noise. This is essential for maintaining professional Sound Architecture when you are recording on the move.
The proximity effect works in your favour too: the closer your subject speaks into the mic, the more the room drops away.

Build Your Mobile Sound Architecture
