Speaking of details, the ECM-W3 comes with two small microphone transmitters and a two-channel receiver for use in interviews or during one-on-one broadcasting, where the transmitters and receiver digitally process the audio and send it wirelessly to record it with high-quality audio, while the ECM-W3S comes with one microphone and a receiver. With one channel. Both come with a dedicated button to reduce annoying noise, with a special filter to deal with low frequency such as wind and vibrations. As for the safety function, it allows the simultaneous recording of two audio signals, one at a normal volume and the other at 20 dB lower, which reduces the risk of interruption while recording high sound levels, while Attenuator function: It helps to adjust the recording level to one of these values according to the sound level, which are 0dB, 10dB, 20dB. The ECM-W3 and ECM-W3S come with a similar battery life of 6 hours, and also include battery charging cases to ensure uninterrupted operation.
