Schoeps Mono-Set CMC 1 L, MK 2H

Schoeps Mono-Set CMC 1 L, MK 2H [138409]

The Schoeps Mono-Set CMC 1 L, MK 2H combines the MK 2H omnidirectional capsule with the compact CMC 1 L microphone amplifier. The microphone has a Lemo output and connects to an XLR microphone input with phantom power using the included 5 meter K 5 LU adapter cable.

The MK 2H is intended for medium recording distances, where direct and reflected sound contribute in approximately equal proportions. Its gentle high-frequency boost above 6 kHz supports this application when recording acoustic instruments, ensembles and orchestras. Although the capsule is omnidirectional, its orientation affects the response at high frequencies.

• Compact CMC 1 L amplifier with a detachable Lemo connection.
