Schoeps MK2 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 flat frequency response corrected for the free (near) sound field for use close to the sound source (frontal sound incidence) As can be seen from the frequency response curve, this microphone type has a flat frequency response for frontal sound incidence. This yields a very natural sound when recordings are made within the reverberation radius, where the direct sound (frontal incidence) predominates over the reverberant sound (random angles of incidence). This microphone type can and should be used fairly close to the sound source ? the sound image never becomes overly brilliant or sharp ? and should be directed towards it, since there is some loss of high frequencies in sound arriving off axis. The MK 2 capsule has qualities of a measurement microphone and is used in acoustimetric applications, where it has gained a considerable reputation.
