Sennheiser MKH30-P48 Bi-Directional Condenser Microphone

Bi-Directional (Figure 8) Condenser Microphone with Switchable 10dB Pad and Switchable Bass Attenuation

The symmetrical transducer design of the MKH30 produces an unusually wide and smooth frequency response. It is particularly suited to soloists and small instrumental groups and can also serve as an 'S' microphone in MS stereo applications. As a support microphone it is particularly useful in the effective suppression of sounds from adjacent sound sources.

Features:

• High rejection of lateral sounds
• Exceptionally low inherent self-noise
• Symmetrical transducer technology ensures extremely low distortion
• Transformerless and fully floating balanced output
• Switchable roll-off filter to compensate for proximity effects at a distance of approx. 0.5 m
• Switchable pre-attenuation
• Black, anodized light metal body
