From Schoeps Microphones
The KMITis the shotgun capsule for the modular Colette series. It is derived directly from the CMIT series and inherits its acoustic properties, such as the high directivity combined with low coloration of sound arriving from the side and the directivity that increases very evenly with frequency. In use, the KMIT, CMIT 5, and MiniCMIT can be interchanged without resulting in changes to the sound.
- Rotationally symmetrical polar pattern
- Steep, integrated low-cut filter (ca. 70 Hz)
- Also suitable for music recording
- Compatible with all Colette amplifiers | a digital shotgun is offered in combination with the CMD 42
- based on CMIT generation D: capsule is moisture-resistant
- Gray/Blue overlapping finish color melding two generations of industry-defining microphone series
The KMIT brings the unparalleled acoustic qualities of the CMIT series to the modular Colette series. It is compatible with all amplifiers of the Colette series, i.e., with the current analog amplifiers CMC 6 and CMC 1, as well as with the digital amplifier CMD 42. This means that SCHOEPS now offers a digital shotgun that can be controlled with the Remote App for the first time.
The characteristics of the KMIT capsule are only slightly dependent on the amplifier used. The sound of the KMIT is essentially the same with any amplifier as in the CMIT 5/MiniCMIT. The choice between CMC 6, CMC 1 U/L, or CMD 42 is consequently determined by the practical characteristics.
