Sanken CMS-10 - Stereo Mono Switchable Shotgun Microphone for Camcorder

\n \nStereo Shotgun for Camcorder \n

\n

Switchable very sharp mono-shotgun and stereo mic

\n

Very short length (210.5mm) and light weight (170g)

\n

Using PPS diaphragm, it maintains high durability and quality even in high humidity environments.

\n

By use of a specially designed suspension holder, it can isolate camera motor noise in camera mount use.

\n

Basic design is M-S, but it includes M-S to L-R circuitry, and allows a direct L-R signal.

\n

\nThe CMS-10 provides extremely high-resolution audio to match today’s advanced picture quality. This versatile microphone is switchable between a very sharp directional Mono and rich Stereo in environmental imaging. Stereo angle is 127°. \n \nUnlike conventional shotgun microphones, the CMS-10 uses a unique second-order pressure gradient design, enabling precision directional response through multiple cardioid elements in a front-back array. The capsules combine line microphone performance and second-order gradient response in a single compact system. \n \nStereophonic localization depends primarily on signal accuracy and channel separation in the 400Hz to 3kHz range. Pattern control of the CMS-10 has been optimized in this range. Very low and very high frequency response has been optimized along the frontal axis so that the "target" on-axis sounds are clearly delineated. \n \nRead more here...
