Sennheiser MKH 8018 Stereo Shotgun Condenser Microphone

Product Description

The Sennheiser MKH 8018 is a stereo shotgun RF condenser microphone that delivers a rich sense of directionality and spatial realism. MKH 8018 features a remarkable push-pull transducer design. In combination with a low-tension diaphragm, this transducer design delivers remarkable sensitivity and wide frequency response, so you can capture sound as authentically as possible.

RECORDING FLEXIBILITY VIA 3 SWITCHABLE MODES

With its switchable modes — MS, XY-narrow, and XY-wide — MKH 8018 allows sound recordists remarkable flexibility. In M-S mode, MKH 8018 provides independent mid and side signals. This allows the width of the stereo image to be adjusted in post-production or in the field with a matrix mixer. Or choose from two internally matrixed modes that provide traditional “left-right” stereo without the need for external mixers. To accommodate varying acoustic environments, the user may select between a “wide” pattern (LR-W) with increased ambient pickup, and a “narrow” pattern (LR-N) which offers more rejection and less ambiance.
