Started in the '80s in Birmingham UK, International Dawn Chorus Day has grown to be enjoyed, well, internationally as a celebration of the ever-changing soundscape around us.

Bubblebee Industries will be presenting informative talks for production sound professionals at The Sound Summit 2020 with hosts Sound Devices and other prominent manufacturers in the location sound industry.

Due to the current situation with COVID-19 pretty much worldwide, it might be a little unreasonable to expect you to take pics of your Bubblebee gear outdoors "In the Wild" to enter our monthly #BBIinthewild giveaway. So we have decided to change the theme for the month of April, and perhaps beyond, depending on how things develop.

During March 2020 we ran a competition in conjunction with DPA Microphones - The Colours of Great Sound - where we invited you to enter for a chance to win one of four DPA/BBI lavalier microphone kits, each worth over $1000.00. It was a colour-themed giveaway, with each box conforming to one of DPA's four colours available for their awesome 6060 Subminiature lav mic.

Win a colour-matched DPA Microphones 6060 and accessories kit each week during March 2020, each worth over $1000!

A brand new Bubblebee listening station will be shown at SoundPro 2019, this year held in Chiswick Town Hall in London on Saturday 26th October. Complete with dual headphone stations equipped with Sony MDR-7506 cans, two Sound Devices MixPre3 mixers powering DPA shotgun- and shortgun mics, lavalier mics and the latest Sony Wireless Tx/Rx to test out, amongst other things, The Sidekick In-Ear Monitor at range.

We custom produce Spacer Bubbles in Chroma Key Green to give you the optimal wind protection for green screen sound recording. Simply choose the applicable size using our Size Guide and contact your local BBI Dealer to place your order for your custom Spacer Bubble or Spacer Kit.

We've recently improved our tape offering by making some changes to production and packaging for both The Lav Concealer Tape and the original Invisible Lav Tape. Here's a quick overview of the updates
