Features
Stereo shotgun capsule configuration captures sound with an immersive sense of directionality and spatial realism
Ideal mic choice for capturing film and video production with a sense of directionality; stereo soundscapes during screenplay scenes, sporting events, and spatially accurate environmental sounds, wildlife, and more
Three switchable stereo-modes: MS, XY-narrow, and XY-wide
Switchable low-cut filter (-3 dB at 70 Hz) reduces wind- and handling noise
High-quality -10 dB pad protects against overdriving
Ideal for camera mounting due to compact design
Identical timbre as other 8000 series microphones for optimum aural compatibility
Fully floating balanced output allows for non-critical connection technology with minimal distortion
A low-tension diaphragm and symmetrical, acoustically open push-pull transducer design keep the sound flow as unrestricted and undistorted as possible
Extended bass response enables capturing sound in its full frequency extent and gives more freedom for microphone positioning
Part of a complete series of condenser microphones; MKH 8000 series includes all standard polar patterns that audio recording professionals need for various applications
German-engineered with durable metal housing and rugged construction means superior reliability
Moisture-resistant design ideal for use in humid, hot, and cold environments where other mics fail
Optimal polar pattern avoids off-axis colorations, allows for coherent sound image, especially for larger sound sources
Low self-noise for greater detail in audio; retains the softness of quiet sounds and increases dynamics
Low nonlinear distortion avoids adding new frequency spectrum, thus maintaining sonic clarity
Compact size means easy transport; it is visually unobtrusive in live shows or TV
Nextel® non-reflecting paint ensures no reflection from stage lights, keeping the mic visually unobtrusive in live shows or TV
Non-modular design; fixed XLR 5M-Out
