The Sennheiser MKH 416 Mic Kit comes complete with 416 microphone, shock mount, boom pole, and handy boom pole C-stand holder.
The 416's transformerless, RF condenser is designed as a combination of pressure gradient and interference tube microphones. Very good feedback rejection, low proximity effect, 130 dB/SPL. Rugged and resistant to changing climate conditions. Ideal for boom, fishpole, and camera mounting.
Its excellent directivity and compact design, high consonant articulation and feedback rejection make the MKH 416 a superb all-around microphone for film, radio and television, especially for outside broadcast applications.
The kit also includes a Rycote Softie single-piece, rubber diaphragm shock mount. The multimount on this unit allows the user to fit the Softie mount to either a camcorder hot-shoe or to a boom pole with a 3/8" Whitworth tip. The mount is 58 x 56mm (diameter x length) and supports short to medium length shotgun microphones. This shock mount reduces vibration while recording to improve acoustic quality.
A K-Tek aluminum boom pole, Alfa BoomTube case, and Pearstone boom pole C-stand holder completes the kit.
