The Parabolic Microphone is a crucial tool in Phasmophobia, aiding in ghost location and identification. This guide details how to unlock and effectively utilize this valuable piece of equipment.

Unlocking the Parabolic Microphone

The Parabolic Microphone is optional equipment, requiring specific player levels to unlock. Tier 1 unlocks at Level 7. Upgrades to Tier 2 (Level 31, $3000) and Tier 3 (Level 72, $5000) are available in the in-game shop. Note that prestiging resets progress, requiring re-unlocking of all tiers.

Using the Parabolic Microphone

Equip the Parabolic Microphone from your in-game truck's equipment wall. Activate it using the appropriate button. Tier 3 features a directional radar for enhanced sound location.

On larger maps, the Parabolic Microphone is invaluable for pinpointing ghost activity through sound cues – object throws, door movements, or vocalizations. It can also complete optional objectives requiring ghost voice recordings. Furthermore, specific ghosts (e.g., Deogen, Banshee) produce unique sounds only detectable by this microphone, aiding in identification.
