Studio Microphone MC 840

Model: MC 840
Top class large-diaphragm condenser
microphone
The MC 840 is a extremely compact large
diaphragm studio microphone with a gold vaporised double diaphragm
and 5 selectable polar patterns (omnidirectional, wide cardioid,
cardioid, hypercardioid, figure-eight). On the basis of the MC 740
microphone capsule this new microphone has been equipped with an
improved low-noise pre-amplifier and an impedance transformer
without transducer. Due to a two-stage roll-off filter (80 and 160
Hz) compensating the close miking effect and a two-stage
pre-attenuation (-10 and -20 dB) the MC 840 is a superior microphone
for any recording application. It has been designed without
compromise to capture every sound detail with absolute clarity and
purity. Applications for the MC 840 include
recording orchestras resulting in a superb transparent sound. |
