Audio-Technica BP880R is a waterproof piezoelectric contact microphone designed to capture impact and surface vibrations rather than traditional airborne sound. This makes it particularly useful for sports broadcasting, film production, field recording, theater, and specialty sound-effects applications where physical movement and vibration are part of the desired audio experience.
The low-profile BP880R can be mounted directly to surfaces, submerged in water or ice, installed in flooring, buried underground, or attached to structures and objects in the field of play. Its corrosion-resistant DZR brass body and waterproof construction provide performance equivalent to IPX7, while multiple mounting holes provide installation flexibility.
A high-sensitivity piezoelectric sensor and internal preamplifier support long cable runs. The microphone includes a fixed 20 m / 65.6 ft waterproof cable terminating in a 3-pin male XLR connector and operates from 20–52V phantom power. Because it has very little sensitivity to airborne sound, the BP880R helps isolate structure-borne impacts and vibrations from surrounding ambient noise.
Features:
- Waterproof contact microphone is designed to pick up impact and surface vibrations even when submerged in water or ice, installed in flooring, or buried underground*
- Ideal for capturing key sonic details in sports broadcasting, film, field recording, and other applications to enhance the immersive effect of audio
- Fixed 20 m (65.6') waterproof cable with XLR-M output connector**
- Corrosion-resistant DZR brass microphone body and waterproof cable are built to withstand the rigors of daily use in harsh environments (e.g., deployment in water, ice, and earth)
- Through holes for mounting with screws and nuts or with zip ties, and a 1/4" threaded hole for mounting with a single screw
*Waterproof performance equivalent to IPX7 standards.
**Connector is not waterproof.
