microphone Sennheiser Model: MKH 8018 black

Record what other microphones can't see The MKH 8018 stereo shotgun microphone is an HF condenser microphone with outstanding directionality and authentic spatial imaging. It has balanced, acoustically open push-pull transducers. In combination with low-stress, free-swinging diaphragms, it achieves outstanding sensitivity and a wide transmission range - for sound recordings that are as authentic as possible. Recording flexibility thanks to three switchable stereo settings The MKH 8018 can be switched between MS stereo, XY stereo (narrow) and XY stereo (wide), giving it a high degree of recording flexibility. high flexibility when recording. In the MS stereo setting, the MKH 8018 provides a center and a side channel. The width of the stereo image can be be adjusted in post-production or on site with a matrix mixer. Alternatively, the MKH 8018 has two matrix matrix modes to output the signals directly to LR without the need for an external mixer. In order to adapt to the acoustic conditions on site, the microphone can be switched between a "wide" stereo image (XY-W, wide), where more ambient sound is picked up, and a "narrow" stereo image (XY-N, narrow) where more focused sound is picked up with less ambient sound. more focused with less ambient sound. Part of a complete series The MKH 8000 series covers the highest professional demands. The microphones in the series are absolutely reliable reliable companions for outdoor use, whether for sports broadcasts or nature recordings. FEATURES - Stereo shotgun microphone with outstanding directionality and authentic spatial imaging - Ideal for directional stereo recordings in film and video video productions, in sports broadcasting as well as for environmental and nature recordings where spatial spatial sound reproduction with only one microphone is to be achieved. - Three switchable stereo settings: MS stereo, XY stereo (narrow) and XY stereo (wide) - Switchable low-cut filter (-3 dB at 70 Hz) reduces Wind and handling noise - High-quality -10 dB pad protects against clipping - Balanced output signals are available at the earth-free, transformerless output; ideal for low-distortion processing - The acoustically open push-pull transducers and the low-voltage diaphragms ensure natural, largely undistorted sound processing, largely undistorted sound processing - The extended bass response allows sound to be recorded in all its can be recorded in all its frequency richness; greater freedom in microphone positioning - Climate-resistant, ideal for use in humid, hot and cold cold environments for which other microphones are not suitable - Precise directionality with minimal coloration for a coherent and natural sound, especially with larger sound sources sound image, especially with larger sound sources - The low inherent noise makes details audible, quiet noises can be noises can be picked up and the dynamics are increased - Low non-linear distortion - no disturbing disharmonic disharmonic effects, the sonic transparency is unsurpassed. is unsurpassed - Compact size, unobtrusive in use and easy to transportable - Nextel® coating absorbs light reflections; the microphone microphone remains very unobtrusive even in high-light stage and TV environments - Non-modular design, XLR-5M connector
