MKH 50 P 48
Microphones | RF Symmetrical Capsule
Condenser Microphone
General Description
The super-cardioid MKH 50 offers a higher attenuation of diffuse-field
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 direc-
tional characteristics are frequency-independent.
