Schoeps MK2 H Omnidirectional Microphone Capsule, from Schoeps

All capsules are available in matched pairs with official Schoeps documentation. For matched pairs multiply the cost of the microphone exactly by two and then add $40 dollars for the matching fee! The amplifier bodies are available in sequentially serial numbered pairs at no additional charge. Any Schoeps product not found on our webpage can be purchased through Sound Pure. Please call and talk to one of our staff members to inquire about the price and availability!

omnidirectional pattern; mild high-frequency rise to compensate for losses at medium recording distance; Even from its appearance alone, this microphone type distinguishes itself from the other SCHOEPS pressure transducers: the typical grill is absent, and the sound inlet (surrounded by a gold-plated ring) is smaller than that of other types. These special design features lead to a frequency response that rises only above 6 kHz. This microphone type would be used in the near field only if a slight high-frequency emphasis were desired. It resembles the MK 2S/ CCM 2S, though the high-frequency emphasis of the MK 2H/ CCM 2H is audibly less pronounced and begins around an octave higher. The primary application for this capsule is at a greater distance from the sound source, e.g. near the reverberation radius, when recording a large orchestra. This microphone type is particularly designed for the recording of classical music, a field in which it is highly acclaimed. The choice between the MK 2H/ CCM 2H and the equally well-liked MK 2S/ CCM 2S is essentially a matter of personal preference.
