Description

Sennheiser MKH8050 Supercardioid RF Condenser Short Shotgun Microphone, with Modular MZX8000 Analog Output and Windscreen.

Balanced frequency response within the pick-up pattern. Absolute acoustical separation of instruments.  The super-cardioid MKH 8050 will give higher attenuation of off-axis sound from the side than its cardioid sister model. It is a good choice for recording soloists, where the requirements for lateral acoustic separation are higher.

  • Super-cardioid pick-up pattern
  • Modular design
  • Wide frequency response 30 to 50.000 Hz
  • Symmetrical transducer with 2 backplates providing extremly low distortion
  • Extremly low inherent self-noise
  • Accurate directional pattern
  • Non reflective Nextel coating
  • Provides optimum separation of instruments
