MKH 8030 Microphone

The MKH 8030 is an RF condenser microphone with figure-of-eight pick-up pattern. It not only unlocks M-S, double M-S, and Blumlein stereo recording options, but id also e a great choice wherever the highest attenuation of neighboring sound sources is required – be it a PA system whose sound needs to be eliminated or an adjacent instrument that must not be picked up. The sound signature of the MKH 8030 has been carefully engineered to blend in harmoniously with the sound of the existing MKH 8000 series microphones.

​Naturally, the MKH 8030 shares the qualities of the MKH 8000 family and its RF condenser principle with a push-pull transducer. These include high resistance to moisture, a fully floating, balanced output signal, extended low and high frequency response (30 to 50,000 Hz) and extremely low inherent self-noise. These features will enable sound recordists and engineers to capture a sound event in its entirety and with all its intricate detail, with wide dynamics, extremely low distortion, and a frequency-independent polar pattern to avoid coloration.
