MICROPHONE HEAD ME 88

The ME 88 is an extremely lightweight directional microphone with fixed windscreen. Highly directional characteristic is achieved by using a long interference tube. The combination of interference tube and pressure transducer gives a directional characteristic which is

indeed frequency-dependent but essential advantages are obtained regarding the sensitivity to wind and handling noises In combination with the powering module K 3 it is especially suitable for recording and sound film amateurs. Due to its small weight (appx. 56 g) it may also be used with the telescope MZS 802.
