THE CAPSULE: 8 PARTS OF PERFECTION

A new level of tonal balance, more body, especially in the bass and mid-range, and transparency in the treble: The KK 15 capsule overcomes former limitations of the electret principles and capture the signature sound of a wide range of acoustic sources. To achieve this, Neumann developed a layer-based design. Each of the capsulesʼ eight key components are designed for optimal performance, manufactured independently, and assembled by hand later on. The strict quality control also guarantees an unprecedented level of tonal consistency. Each capsule sounds exactly the same and delivers the neutral Neumann-style sound, saving time during setup and EQ tuning especially when running multiple microphones simultaneously. There is also a remarkable sonic consistency across the three capsule types KK 13/14/15, making it possible to combine different polar patterns within the same setup. With ultra-low self-noise and an extremely high maximum sound level of up to 153 dB SPL, the capsules of the MCM system deliver perfect results with both very quiet and very loud instruments. The titanium housing is road tough and protects the more sensitive parts for years to come.

MOUNTING: GENTLE ON SURFACES – RELIABLE FOR ENGINEERS

A fundamental part of the MCM System is an exhaustive palette of mounting options that allow for simple and reliable microphone positioning on any instrument. Their mechanics are gentle on even the most sensitive surfaces and make mounting a matter of seconds, requiring only one hand for most instruments. Goosenecks in several lengths can be precisely aligned and locked to the instrument clips in one or two axes in 45-degree increments.
