MKH 418 S P48 U
MS Stereo Condenser Microphone
Brief Description
The MKH 418 S is an MS stereo microphone. Its high
degree of directivity makes the MKH 418 S the ideal
choice for stereophonic recordings for reporting, film
and television applications.
The microphone is designed for 48 V phantom
powering and operates using the RF principle. This
principle ensures high operational reliability, even
under extreme climatic conditions.
The MKH 418 S has two independent acoustic
systems for generating the mid and side signals. The
mid signal (M) is generated by a shotgun microphone
system. At high frequencies, this results in a lobar
pick-up pattern, whereas at low frequencies there is a
transition to a super-cardioid characteristic. The side
signal (S) is produced by a figure-of-eight capsule,
whose positive side is directed to the left. The M and S
signals are available independently at the microphone
output. The microphone is positioned correctly when
the word "TOP" is pointing upwards.
