Cat. No. 002872

MKH 30 P 48

Microphones | RF Symmetrical Capsule

Condenser Microphone

General Description

The symmetrical transducer design of the figure-of-eight MKH 30 produces

an unusually wide and smooth frequency response. It is particularly suited

to soloists and small instrumental groups and can also serve as an ‘S’

microphone in MS stereo applications. As a support microphone it is

particularly useful in the effective suppression of sounds from adjacent

sound sources.

Features

High rejection of lateral sounds

Exceptionally low inherent self-noise

Symmetrical transducer technology ensures extremely low distortion

Transformerless and fully floating balanced output

Switchable roll-off filter to compensate for proximity effects at a

distance of approx. 0.5 m

Switchable pre-attenuation

Black, anodised light metal body

Delivery includes: 1 MKH 30, 1 MZS 80 shock mount,

1 MZW 41 windshield
