CAPTURE WHAT OTHER MICROPHONES CAN'T.

The MKH 8018 is a stereo shotgun RF condenser microphone that delivers a rich sense of directionality and spatial realism.

MKH 8018 features a remarkable push-pull transducer design. In combination with a low-tension diaphragm, this transducer design delivers remarkable sensitivity and wide frequency response, so you can capture sound as authentically as possible.

RECORDING FLEXIBILITY VIA 3 SWITCHABLE MODES

With its switchable modes - MS, XY-narrow, and XY-wide - MKH 8018 allows sound recordists remarkable flexibility. In MS mode, MKH 8018 provides independent mid and side signals. This allows the width of the stereo image to be adjusted in post-production or in the field with a matrix mixer.

Or choose from two internally matrixed modes that provide traditional "left-right" stereo without the need for external mixers. To accommodate varying acoustic environments, the user may select between a "wide" pattern (LR-W) with increased ambient pickup, and a "narrow" pattern (LR-N) which offers more rejection and less ambiance.

PART OF A COMPLETE SERIES

The MKH 8000 series is the complete toolkit for audio professionals. Perfect for outdoor applications such as sports broadcasting and wilderness recording excursions, MKH 8000 microphones allow you to head into the field with confidence.

KEY FEATURES:

stereo shotgun capsule configuration captures sound with an immersive sense of directionality and spatial realism
three switchable stereo-modes: MS, XY-narrow, and XY-wide
ideal mic choice for capturing film and video production with a sense of directionality, stereo soundscapes during screenplay scenes, sporting events, and spatially accurate environmental sounds, wildlife, and more
switchable low-cut filter (-3 dB at 70 Hz) reduces windand handling noise
high-quality -10 dB pad protects against overdriving
ideal for camera mounting due to compact design
identical timbre as other MKH 8000 series microphones for optimum aural compatibility
fully floating balanced output allows for non-critical connection technology with minimal distortion
a low-tension diaphragm and symmetrical, acoustically open push-pull transducer design keep the sound flow as unrestricted and undistorted as possible
extended bass response enables capturing sound to the fullest extent and gives more freedom for microphone positioning
