Manufacturer's Description from Schoeps
The Desert Island Boom Set combines the three SCHOEPS essentials that a production sound mixer needs on any job, packed into a single Peli Case. The CMC 1 U microphone amplifier, the MK 41 supercardioid capsule and the KMIT shotgun capsule cover both indoor and outdoor dialogue recording without compromise.
The set reflects how boom operators actually work. Indoors, the MK 41 delivers the controlled pickup pattern and natural sound character that dialogue recording demands. Its polar pattern is exceptionally consistent across the frequency spectrum: sounds from the side and rear are strongly attenuated, but picked up without coloration. Outdoors, the KMIT provides the additional directivity needed on location. Derived directly from the CMIT series, it offers the same acoustical qualities: high directivity combined with low coloration of lateral-incident sound. Switching between capsules takes seconds.
At the core of the set is the CMC 1 U, the compact Colette amplifier that matches or exceeds the electrical performance of the CMC 6 in about one-third the length. As a Colette-series product, the Desert Island Boom Set is also a starting point: the CMC 1 U accepts any MK capsule, so users can expand their collection without replacing the amplifier.
All components come in the CMIT's signature blue finish. The Desert Island Boom Set joins the Desert Island Stereo Set in the Desert Island family.

About Manufacturer
The focus on high quality, reliability and neutral accurate sound has been the production philosophy of Schoeps Microphones since 1948. The simple elegance and clever engineering of their products boast a true passion for the art of microphone making and a tireless attention to detail. The Colette System is the largest modular mic system available offering twenty different capsules and various active accessories. The newest addition to the acclaimed Colette System is the CMC 6 xt which offers extended frequency response beyond 40 kHz. The CCM Series mics are the smallest phantom powered non-electret microphones in the world. Other notables from Schoeps include the M222 Tube microphone, the VMS 5U portable two channel mic preamp and M/S matrix, three extremely unique stereo mics, the KFM-360 Surround microphone and the Polarflex Microphone System that allows the user to emulate the characteristics of any microphone. Schoeps is unquestionably among the most innovative microphone manufacturers in the world, leading the way in many developments. Central to its design philosophy over the years is the company's insistence on absolute sound neutrality of the microphones. It is really no wonder that Schoeps has so many supporters, not only in the area of classical music recording and reinforcement, but also in film and television. No doubt part of its success is due to the fact that, in a space of only 1500 square meters, a total of 35 employees develop, manufacture and distribute the whole range of Schoeps products. Staff turnover is very small, which says much about the family atmosphere in the company. Many an employee has celebrated his or her 25th anniversary with Schoeps. Continuity is and will remain very important at Schoeps. Despite many outside offers, Ulrich Schoeps intends to continue the life's work of his father.
