The Product

The Sennheiser MKH800 is a multi-pattern studio condenser microphone and is the first microphone to fully utilise the wider frequency response and dynamic range of the new high bitrate standard of advanced digital recording systems. It has five switchable pick-up patterns, and is a superior microphone for any recording application, offering high clarity and the absolute minimum coloration. Main features include a very wide frequency response of 30Hz to 50kHz, exceptionally low inherent self-noise, wide dynamic range, a switchable pre-attenuation, switchable roll-off filter and switchable treble emphasis, an LED for on-axis alignment and a transformerless and fully floating balanced output. The MKH800 TWIN comes supplied with an MZW80 windshield and an MZS80 shock mount.

Requires phantom power to function.
