Schoeps Par-1 Parabolic Dish Set without Microphone

A parabolic dish is an extraordinary tool in the hands of a skilled sound engineer, since it achieves a surprisingly high directivity at high and medium frequencies with relatively simple means. With the Schoeps Parabolic Dish Set consisting of a special OEM parabolic dish from Telinga and a Schoeps CCM microphone, these characteristics can fully be realized. In addition SCHOEPS achieved significant improvements with regards to the usual disadvantages of a parabolic dish system by several innovative measures.

The enormous directivity of a parabolic dish often comes with a very unbalanced frequency response, which also varies widely for different directions of sound incidence. This usually leads to a clear coloration. To overcome that, the SCHOEPS Parabolic Dish Set is a matched system. The microphone position is designed to produce a smooth frequency response (unusual for a parabolic system) for the three recommended CCM microphone types. Although the frequency response is now smooth, it is not yet even, so must still be equalized. This is automatically achieved with Schoeps' plug-in ParabolEQ. The plug-in performs filtering based on the entered application parameters, producing a flat frequency response between 100 Hz and 20 kHz. The correction curve is visualized accordingly.
