Schoeps MK 22G Open Cardioid for CCM22 Compact Microphones Matte Gray
The Schoeps MK22 Open Cardioid for CCM22 Compact Microphones is part of the Colette series of modular capsules designed for use with the CMC preamplifiers. The MK22 combines the cardioid polar pattern of the MK4 with the sonic characteristics of the MK21. The result is a microphone ideal for spot capturing with a polar pattern that effectively reduces ambient noise and feedback. The MK22 has a perfect combination of reference microphone and instrument microphone characteristics for crucial capturing in recording and live audio applications.
