Schoeps Saxophone Microphone Kit

Schoeps SAXOPHONE SET Overview

Record saxophone audio with the Saxophone Microphone Kit from Schoeps. This kit includes a Schoeps MK 41 mic, CMC 1 KV microphone, and BA 20 adapter that clips onto your Saxophone's bell.

Schoeps MK 41 Supercardioid Condenser Microphone Capsule (Matte Gray)

The matte gray Schoeps MK 41 is a supercardioid condenser microphone capsule designed to deliver minimal coloration and accurate capture of speech and music for sound recordists and audio engineers in film, television, and video production and studio recording sessions. The supercardioid polar pattern offers enhanced attenuation of off-axis SPL and consistent directionality throughout its 40 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range, which naturally rolls off sub-bass frequencies.

The MK 41 is compatible with Schoeps Colette microphone amplifiers and requires no tools to install.

Designed for use with Schoeps Colette microphone amplifiers such as the CMC 6 U, CMC 5 Vintage U, CMR, and CMBI

Ideal for music and speech

Supercardioid polar pattern with highly consistent directionality throughout its frequency range

High directivity comparable to that of a short shotgun microphone up through midrange frequencies

Off-axis sound is attenuated even more than with a cardioid polar pattern

Decreased susceptibility to acoustic feedback

Schoeps CMC 1 KV XLR Miniature Colette Microphone Amplifier with Magnetic Back (Matte Gray)

Suitable as a "plant mic" in film sound or for all recordings where the microphone needs to be discreetly hidden, the matte gray Schoeps CMC 1 KV XLR is a variant of the CMC 1 miniature Colette Series microphone amplifier equipped with a magnetic back. With the supplied magnet accessories, it can be easily mounted on many surfaces, e.g. door frames, steel beams, windows, table tops, and more. The CMC 1 KV XLR features a 6.5' permanently attached, side-exit cable terminated with a 3-pin XLR male connector. It is compatible with all existing MK mic capsules and Colette active accessories (all available separately).

Presented as an alternative to the renowned Schoeps CMC 6 amplifier, the CMC 1 KV XLR offers uncompromising high fidelity in a lightweight and ultracompact form factor. It operates on 12 or 48V phantom power from the transmitter and features low current consumption. Its Schoeps RFI Shield provides high immunity from RF interference for a clean, low-noise signal. The CMC 1 KV XLR supports the high maximum SPLs tolerated by the various MK mic capsules.
