Working from home has enough challenges. Take audio and video for telecommunications off your list of worries with the HOMEBASE3.
The Saramonic HOMEBASE3 connects to smartphones, tablets, cameras and computers, and provides tools to enhance the audio and video quality of these devices. It is compatible with common video and telecommuting software, such as Zoom, Skype, GoToMeeting, Facebook, Instagram, and more. Distractions are one of the hard-to-manage elements of working remotely. Home Base is prepared to help you manage distractions of all kinds throughout the day. The Tenba Skyline 13 Messenger Bag conveniently stores your valuable tools, whether switching rooms throughout your house or bringing equipment back and forth from the office. Padding and weather-resistant design makes this bag kid and pet proof, keeping your devices safe during transport and storage.
Create high-quality video with the kit’s lighting and backdrop accessories. Home lighting is great in-person but tends to be either too dark or too harsh in video. The Nanlite LumiPad 25 offers professional video lighting in a small setup to help control your lighting environment. Quality of the LumiPad is optimized with the Phottix P220 light stand, which is adjustable up to 6.8 feet to provide the best light angle for your shot. Control your visual background with the Savage Universal Gray Pop Up Background. The screen’s wrinkle-resistant gray fabric creates a professional look without being too harsh on skin tones under natural or artificial lighting. Rolled into a carry bag with shoulder strap, the 5’ x 7’ backdrop conceals any visual clutter or people behind you.
To stabilize images and video, the Benro PP1 PocketPod tabletop tripod/handgrip is included. Compatible with many devices, this tripod/handgrip is ideally suited to be used with smartphones, action cameras, and DSLR/mirrorless cameras. The tripod/handgrip is a favorite feature among teachers creating video lessons, business professionals recording presentations, exercise instructors filming workouts for remote use, and more. In addition to the tripod/handgrip a smartphone clamp is included. This clamp mounts to the tripod in vertical and horizontal arrays to keep your phone secure in all configurations.
Audio is arguably the most important aspect of remote communication. A microphone headset* and clip-on microphone are both included so you will get the best sound quality in any application. The headset with unidirectional mic is noise-cancelling, and lets you listen back in stereo detail. Also included is an USB Plug Connection Option to plug directly into laptops and desktops for digital audio. The control box on the USB connection has volume control and can mute the mic or headset independently. For when you need more freedom to move, the included VMic Mini captures broadcast-quality sound without needing you to be connected to a device. Recording yourself or others when in a common area with other people present can be challenging with any equipment. The Saramonic VMic Mini excels in these situations because its cardioid condenser pattern focuses directly on your voice, and the double-thick windscreen minimizes extra sound and pops.
