User manual SENNHEISER MKH 20-P48

[. . . ] Therefore the MKH 416 P 48 can olten be employed as a microphone for soloists or for commentary purposes without using an additional popshield. However, for outdoors the use of a windscr'een is recommended. the frequency response is intended to have a slight increase of the high frequencies. The so-called close-talking ellect is low with this microphone. [. . . ] Therefore, the MKH 416 gives a weil balanced sound even when it is used close up. The microphone does not contain any transformer and is therefore unaffected by magnetic stray fields. Instead of the high polarisation voltage normally required, a high frequency capsule needs only a high frequency voltage of about 10 volts, which is produced by a built-in low-noise oscillator (8 MHz). P 48 and P 48-U are 48 V phantom-powered according to DIN 45596. Either condenser- or dynamic microphones from Sennheiser electronic employ the principle of voltage matching. This "no load condition" has the advantage that neither impedance variations of the microphone output nor of the amplifier input h;:l'Jea noticable influence on the total performance of the system (e. The source impedance of Sennheiser condenser microphones with phantom powering is extremely low (ilbout 10 Q at 1000 Hz) so that the amplifier input impedance has only to be at least 200 Q. Should - however - the input impedance be smaller than 200 Q, a resistor of appropriate value should be placed in series with the microphone so that it "sees" at least 200 Q. The voltage division caused by this series resistor must, of course, be considered. The same method can be used when a higher output impedance of the microphone is demanded. According to the DIN standard the feed resistors should be 2 x appx. The difference between the two resistors should be ~ 0. The original diagram is included with each microphone, measured from 50. Swivel Mount MZG 415 The swivel mount gives the possibility to use the desk stand together with the microphone clamp or the shock mount for the MKH 416 P 48. Desk Stand MZT 441 The MZT 441 is together with the swivel mount MZG 415 and the microphone clamp MZO 415 or the shock mount MZS 415 a stable desk stand for the MKH 416 P 48. With 3/8" threads and prevents reeordings being disturbed by footfall for other strong meehanieal disturbanees. Desk Stand MZT 100 This sturdy and stable desk stand with its highly effeetive sound insulation is espeeially weil suited to those reeording situations in whieh knoeks and handling noise are unavoidable e. Used in eonjunetion with the MZG 415 and the MZO 415. windscreen-combination MZW 426 , MZS 416 , MZP 816 This eombination eonsists of the robust , light windsereen basket MZW 426 , shoek mount MZS 416 and the inelinable pistol grip MZP 816. The eombination is partieularly weil suited for outdoor reporting use and features easy handling and insensitivity to wind and handling noise.

Windshield MZW 415 The foam-rubber-windshield should be drawn over the sound inlets of the mierophone when wind disturbances are evident. [. . . ]
