You want to record some dialogue outdoors, but the
surroundings are too noisy. Your supercardioid is pressed to the
limit. Which microphone should you use?
The SCHOEPS shotgun CMIT 5 U
Features:
– Unusually low coloration of off-axis sound since the pickup angles
at low and high frequencies are kept reasonably
similar to one another: At medium frequencies the directivity
of the CMIT 5 U is higher than one would expect
from a microphone of this length, while at high frequencies
the pickup pattern is not as narrow as with long shotgun
microphones. Thus in active scenes it is easier to cue
the boom and keep actors ”on mike.”
– SCHOEPS sound quality makes the microphone
suitable for
music recording as well as dialogue.
– The directional pattern and sound quality are consistent in
both the horizontal and vertical planes, unlike some other
shotgun microphones.
– Even greater immunity to wind noise than a
SCHOEPS
supercardioid
– Very lightweight, robust all-metal housing
Three pushbutton-activated filters allow the microphone
to adapt to all recording situations:
– High-frequency emphasis (+ 5 dB at 10 kHz) enhances
speech intelligibility, and compensates for high-frequency
loss caused by windscreens;
– A steep low-cut filter (18 dB/oct. below 80 Hz) suppresses
wind and boom noise;
– A gentle low-frequency rolloff (6 dB/oct. below 300 Hz)
compensates for proximity effect.
Pairs of LEDs next to each pushbutton indicate the
status of the filters. Even in darkness the user can read the settings
and see that the microphone is operational. The settings
are retained when the microphone is switched off.
