The Nostril Sponsor is a cavity-creeping teeny-tiny type of verbalizing microphone. Despite its diminutive size (the component is 2.5 cm long), the Nostril Sponsor is surprisingly loud and clear. We've field tested it both live and in the studio: directly in the nose (hence its namesake), taped on the neck, and even wedged under guitar strings for some rugged free-spazz jams. The Nostril Sponsor could very well be our new fave; a serious contender & go-to microphone for grabbing close-up sounds as well as a pickup for acoustic instruments.
