Schoeps MK 41VG Supercardioid Microphone Capsule with Lateral Pickup and Smooth Off Axis Response Matte Gray

The Schoeps MK41V Supercardioid Microphone Capsule with Lateral Pickup and Smooth Off Axis Response is strongly directional. Sound arriving from off axis is attenuated even more than with a cardioid. The pickup is “drier” and less susceptible to acoustic feedback than any other SCHOEPS capsule type (a loudspeaker should not be located directly along the rear axis of the microphone, however).

Key Features

• Supercardioid with highly consistent directionality throughout its frequency range for music and speech
• For music and speech
• High Directivity, comparable to that of a short "shotgun" microphone up through midrange frequencies
• Often preferred for use in film sound recording and as a spot microphone in orchestras
