The MKH 8070

The MKH 8070

The MKH 8070 is a gun microphone from the modular MKH 8000 microphone series that convinces with its excellent directivity and especially natural sound. The microphone’s special design ensures that off-axis sound is attenuated without col- orations. The MKH 8070 is especially suitable for distance recording situations, e.g. in film and TV, both in the studio and outdoors.

The microphone operates on the RF principle that has been used by Sennheiser for more than 50 years, now brought to highest level of perfection. Among the many advantages of this principle are an extremely low inherent self-noise, the capability to handle high sound pressure levels without distortion and a high resistance to adverse climatic conditions.

Lobar pick-up pattern

Very natural sound

Off-axis sound is attenuated without colorations while a uniform sound structure is maintained

Exceptionally low inherent self-noise prevents masking of delicate sound structures

Symmetrical transducer technology ensures extremely low distortion

Transformerless and fully floating balanced output: no coupling of spurious sig- nals, minimal distortion

High output signal voltage ensures interference-free signal paths

Rugged metal housing with non-reflective Nextel coating

Extremely weather-proof due to high-frequency circuit

Can be used as an analog or – with the digital module – digital microphone

Versatile use due to the extensive range of accessories available for the MKH 8000 series, e.g.:

MZD 8000 digital module

MZF 8000 filter module

Windshield systems

Shock mounts
