DIRECTIONAL INTERVIEW RECORDING
Aim the microphone towards the sound you want
The Olympus ME-31 is a unidirectional microphone for interviews, lectures and field recording. Its directional pickup helps reduce competing sound from other directions when the microphone is positioned towards the speaker or subject.
This VoiceX listing is marked discontinued. Please enquire about availability or alternatives.
Handheld or tabletop positioning
The metal body is supplied with a grip and desktop stand for flexible placement. A windscreen helps reduce wind noise, and the included case keeps the microphone and accessories together.
- Directional electret condenser microphone with mono output
- 1.5 m cable for connection to a compatible recorder
- Grip, stand adapter and desktop stand included
- Windscreen and carry case included
Match the input and check the recording
The ME-31 requires plug-in power from a suitable microphone input. Directional pickup does not eliminate background noise or guarantee clear speech at any distance. Check placement and recording levels before an important interview.

Recorder and input compatibility
The ME-31 requires a compatible external microphone input supplying 2–5 V plug-in power. A headphone-only socket cannot be used.
- The 3.5 mm three-pole plug carries mono audio; it does not make this a stereo microphone.
- Check the exact recorder model, input wiring and microphone settings in the manufacturer documentation.
- Specified microphone sensitivity is not guaranteed with other-brand recording devices.
- A computer or phone needs a suitable powered microphone input or audio interface and appropriate adapter wiring. This is not a USB microphone.
Positioning accessories
Use the supplied grip and desktop stand as described in the microphone manual. The grip can be used with a suitable separate tripod; no additional tripod is included.
