Thank you for investing in the 

 PinMic™.

Whether you’re presenting for television or live on-stage,
in a 20,000 seat auditorium or in a house of worship, 
has your needs covered with the intuitive and subtle PinMic™.

Featuring innovative, industry-leading design, the 

 

PinMic™ is the fi rst of its kind. The pin-on placement of the 
microphone provides an ultra discreet appearance, while also 
simplifying cable management.

The included mini-furry for high wind protection ensures 
quality recordings in adverse environments, while the anti-
trauma water resistant case provides rugged and secure 
protection for the microphone, cable and accessories.

Knowing that versatility is paramount in any product, we at 

 have developed the MiCon™ connector system 

which provides seamless integration between the PinMic™ 
and a wide range of wireless systems.

Please take the time to visit www.rodemic.com and register 
your microphone for warranty.
