Product Description

The Schoeps MK 22 features the "open cardioid" pickup pattern, introduced by Schoeps in 2008. Its sound lies between the classic cardioid and the wide cardioid, achieving both a fair amount of directivity and very natural sound quality. The many years experience of professional recording engineers with the range of Schoeps cardioids has played a large role in the development process. The MK 22 has become a preferred soloist and spot microphone, thus becoming an alternative to the "classic" MK 4.

The response is -5 dB at 90 degrees and there is a 16 dB suppression of rear-incident sound. It is in essence a variant cardioid which balances a very natural sound quality with a good degree of directionality.
