Hide-a-mic is founded by Eric Leek, a Dutch sound mixer with 20 years of experience in recording sound on location. After hiding lavielier microhones for numerous documentaries, series and feature films, concealing can still be a challenge.

Clothing rubbing against the microphone, muffled sound, noisy chest hair and awkward moments when positioning the mic are issues that you will encounter. To deal with this it is important to use microphone concealers that help you get the job done.

The initial idea to create a new kind of microphone concealer came up during a flight from Amsterdam to Moscow when i was watching the hit series 'Suits' and noticed that the mics are placed in the knot of the tie. There came the idea that it could be very usefull to create a little cage around the mic so that it is protected against unwanted sounds and has a little gap so the sound can travel freely. There the Hide-a-mic idea was born.
