Description
DESCRIPTION The Sennheiser MKH 416 transformerless, RF condenser is designed as a combination of pressure gradient and interference tube microphones. Very good feedback rejection, low proximity effect, 130 dB/SPL. Rugged and resistant to changing climate conditions. Ideal for boom, fishpole and camera mounting. Its excellent directivity and compact design, high consonant articulation and feedback rejection make the MKH 416 a superb all-around microphone for film, radio and television, especially for outside broadcast applications. FEATURES Employs RF-technology to control residual microphone noise. Optimizing the transducer's acoustic impedance results in a further improvement in low noise performance The RF-design yields exceptionally low noise levels and is virtually immune to humidity and moisture The comparatively low RF-voltage across the elements of the transducer also eliminates arcing and DC-bias creeping currents Hypercardioid at low and medium frequency, above 2kHz approaches lobar pattern Very low inherent self-noise High sensitivity Transformerless and fully floating balanced output Rugged, suitable for adverse climatic conditions Matt black all-metal body Increased directivity Optimum S/N ratio Lower gain on input channels required Lowest noise and greatest signal stability Highly immune to humidity in all conditions.
