Schoeps CMIT 5 Shotgun Microphone
Here we have the exceptional CMIT 5 shotgun microphone from Schoeps. The 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. Its 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.
Three pushbutton-activated filters allow the microphone to adapt to the recording situation:
- High-frequency emphasis (5dB at 10kHz) enhances speech intelligibility, and compensates for high-frequency loss caused by windscreens;
- A steep low-cut filter (18dB/oct. below 80Hz) suppresses wind and boom noise;
- A gentle low-frequency rolloff (6dB/oct. below 300Hz) compensates for proximity effect.
Pairs of LEDs next to each pushbutton indicate the status of the filters. Even in darkness the user can read the settings and see that the microphone is operational. The settings are retained when the microphone is switched off.
The capsule and amplifier of the CMIT 5 are built as a single unit, unlike microphones of the SCHOEPS ”Colette” series.
