Product Description
The Schoeps WSC Pianissimo PIANI-3 LP is a highly efficient windshield for short microphones up to 21 cm in length. Its special geometry leads to a high acoustical transparency and thus extremely low coloration. At the same time the attenuation of wind noise is very high.
”Double M/S” is an improved version of the well-known M/S stereo recording technique. In addition to a front-facing cardioid or supercardioid ”mid” microphone and a figure-8 ”side” microphone, a rear-facing directional microphone is set up. The front- and rear-facing microphones share the signal of the figure-8 microphone so as to form two complete, back-to-back M/S systems. One M/S system then provides the three front channels (the center channel signal being provided directly by the mid microphone of the front system), while the other system provides the two surround channels.
