General Description
The super-cardioid MKH 50 offers a higher attenuation of diffusefield and lateral sound than the cardioid microphone. It is principally designed for use as a soloist's or spot microphone for applications requiring a high degree of side-borne sound muting and feedback rejection. The directional characteristics are frequency-independent.
Features
	High rejection of lateral sounds
	Exceptionally low inherent self-noise
	Transformerless and fully floating balanced output
	Symmetrical transducer technology ensures extremely low distortion
	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 50,
	1 MZS 40 shock mount,
	1 MZW 41 windshield
