Model: MC 840
Top class large-diaphragm condenser microphone
The MC 840 is a extremely compact large diaphragm studio microphone
with a gold vaporised double diaphragm and 5 selectable polar
patterns (omnidirectional, wide cardioid, cardioid, hypercardioid,
figure-eight). On the basis of the MC 740 microphone capsule this
new microphone has been equipped with an improved low-noise
pre-amplifier and an impedance transformer without transducer. Due
to a two-stage roll-off filter (80 and 160 Hz) compensating the
close miking effect and a two-stage pre-attenuation (-10 and -20
dB) the MC 840 is a superior microphone for any recording
application. It has been designed without compromise to capture
every sound detail with absolute clarity and purity. Applications
for the MC 840 include recording orchestras resulting in a superb
transparent sound.
