The CMIT 5's directionality increases smoothly with higher frequencies, which results in a very balanced sonic character. In addition to this, the microphone's sound level decreases softly yet steadily for off-axis sounds, allowing these to be recorded neutrally as well as reducing the effects of movement during boom operation. The CMIT 5 also has a much stronger directionality than one might expect from a microphone of its length. If required, the CMIT 5 can also be used for music recordings, for example opera recordings.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe sound quality of the CMIT 5 remains consistent even if the microphone is rotated on its axis, since its directional pattern is the same in both the vertical and horizontal planes.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThree pushbutton-activated filters allow the microphone to adapt to the recording situation:\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eHigh-frequency emphasis (+5 dB at 10 kHz) enhances speech intelligibility, and compensates for high-frequency loss caused by windscreens\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA steep low-cut filter (18 dB\/oct. below 80 Hz) suppresses wind and boom noise\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA gentle low-frequency rolloff (6 dB\/oct. below 300 Hz) compensates for proximity effect\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e   \u003cp\u003ePairs of LEDs next to each pushbutton indicate the status of the filters.

The settings are retained when the microphone is switched off.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe capsule and amplifier of the CMIT 5 U are built as a single unit, unlike microphones of the SCHOEPS ”Colette” series.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUnusually low coloration of off-axis sound\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSuitable for music recording as well as dialogue\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRotationally symmetrical polar pattern\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEven greater immunity to wind noise than a SCHOEPS supercardioid\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eVery lightweight, robust all-metal housing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eRycote Windshield System\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRycote windshield \/ suspension systems are the original, iconic systems used by audio professionals around the world since 1969. Rycote has applied numerous industry-leading engineering developments, evolving this system to maintain its status as the gold standard over the past decades.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe Modular Windshield is a lightweight, durable basket made from flexible grey plastic netting with a screening material attached. Designed for use with the Modular Suspension, this system provides excellent wind-noise reduction of up to 30 dB with minimal High-Frequency loss.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe modular nature allows the fitting of extension pieces to lengthen the windshield so that several microphones can be used by one kit. Various lengths of windshields and extensions are available.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA Modular Windshield is comprised of: A Windshield body, two end caps, and in some cases extension pieces. The twist and turn locking end caps provide easy, secure and rattle-free access on both ends of the windshield. Both end caps can be removed facilitating easy placement of the microphone inside the basket.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schoeps Mikrofone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450008268903,"sku":"59359","price":2975.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/schoeps-cmit-ws4-1_0421486a-36d5-4e34-aed6-3108c1d1aef7.jpg?v=1787091303","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/schoeps-cmit-ws4-set","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
