Sound Grabber II™ Psychotherapy Microphone — $89.00
This professional-quality microphone is destined to become the "standard"
for audio recording of psychotherapy sessions, psychological research
and lectures.
The "Sound
Grabber II" is a more compact version of the original Sound Grabber
with the same performance features. It employs Pressure Zone® technology
and is a world apart from your conventional microphone.
Don't be left frustrated or "stranded," unable to adequately hear
important recorded dialogue. This patented professional technology usually
eliminates the faint, fuzzy or barely audible voice recordings often
produced by conventional microphones.
Only a
single Sound Grabber microphone is required, and it is compatible with
any compact cassette, standard audio, or video recorder you currently
own. It will record up to a roomful of people, up to 15 to 20 feet away from the microphone (sometimes more).
The technology employed by recording engineers is now available for professional use at a low cost.

important meetings, conferences, and student lectures more accurately.

About the Sound Grabber II™ PZM® Psychotherapy Microphone
The Sound Grabber offers an opportunity for vast improvement in the quality of your recordings. Furthermore, it's completely compatible
with any audio (or video) recorder you now own.
Little known a few years ago, the Sound Grabber is now being widely selected by training clinics, private practitioners and university
research centers.
For some mental health professionals, the price may seem high for
a microphone. But why risk lost sessions and disrupted consultations.
Consider the value of clear, reliable voice recording, over and over again, for a price comparable to that of two or three professional
books.
Picks Up More Sound
PZM® recording technology promises to become the "standard" for clinical training. The Sound Grabber outperforms conventional
microphones while helping assure reliable audio taping of psychotherapy
sessions. When audio taping is reliable, neither trainee or supervisor
is left frustrated or "stranded" for being unable to hear playback
of important psychotherapy dialogue.
The Sound Grabber's Pressure Zone technology senses the changes in pressure
as sound waves approach the front of the mike, and because of its unique,
patented design, the mike picks up more of the sound than do conventional
microphones.
The result: Crisp, clear sound.
Why settle for less, when high-quality playback of recorded psychotherapy sessions, psychological research, or important lectures is your goal?
Long
Distance Range Up to 15-20 Feet! (And sometimes more.)
-
The Sound Grabber is much more than omnidirectional. It will pick up
sounds at distances you never thought possible and with
a clarity that other microphones, because of the limitations of their
construction, simply cannot match.
The Sound Grabber does not have to be near the sound source. Speakers
do not have to crowd around the mike. This enables convenient and unobtrusive
placement for psychotherapy, lectures, and research.
Incredibly,
just one stationary PZM mike can pick up an entire therapy group (no
lapel mikes!).
Speakers Can Move Freely
The mike hears sound just like each one of your ears, and does not care from which point on the compass the sound may be coming.
Since the mike has a "wide angle" pick-up pattern, the Sound
Grabber does not need to "follow the action." Speakers can move
freely around the Sound Grabber without their tone quality changing.
Doesn't Record Surface Vibrations
Also, the Sound Grabber will only pick up sound transmitted to it through
the air. Vibrations of the surface on which the mike happens to be resting
will not be detected by the mike. Table-tapping will only be picked
up if audible or "airborne."
No On/Off Switch Worries
A
special feature is that the battery has no on-off switch-thus, no accidental
loss of a recording, either by forgetting to turn a mike on, or by a
run-down battery when you forget to turn it off. A 1.5 volt battery
is furnished with the microphone.
Fits Any Tape Recorder
The Sound Grabber is equipped with an eight-foot cord, with a 7/8"mike plug, and adapters that make it possible to plug into any tape
recorder you want to use. It provides an output signal that will record
easily with all audio or video recorders.
Rugged & Compact
Also, remember that the Sound Grabber is a rugged mike and will
survive treatment that might severely damage conventional microphones.
At the same time it is extremely light weight and compact, measuring
5 1/4" in length. The paddle is only 1/8" deep and the handle only
3/4" in diameter.
It may be easily transported in a coat pocket, purse or briefcase.
Placement of the Sound Grabber
When recording psychotherapy, the PZM® mike can be placed out
of the way from clients and therapist. Locations for the mike could
include the floor, tabletop, or bookshelf, for example.
If recording lectures, pick up both student discussion and your
lecture by placing the mike on a table near you and slightly tilting
it toward the audience. The mike may also be hand held or mounted to
a wall or ceiling. When videotaping, the mike can be easily positioned
out of camera range with excellent audio pick-up.
One-Year Factory Guarantee 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee
The Sound Grabber comes with a 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee. You may
return the microphone within 30 days for a full refund if you are not
satisfied. (The Sound Grabber's extremely low return rate testifies
to the satisfaction of our customers.)
