Neumann KMR82I Super-Cardioid Long Shotgun Condenser Microphone - Nickel

The KMR 82 is a shotgun microphone with a high directivity that remains within the acceptance angle independent of the frequency. The advantage is that a sound source, for example an actor on stage, will not change its apparent tonal balance when moving within this area.

Features

• Interference tube microphone with shotgun directional characteristic
• Interference/pressure-gradient transducer
• High lateral and back attenuation
• 45Îç-recording angle
• Switchable filter or preattenuation features
• Extensive accessories for outdoor use
• Light weight - 250 g

Shotgun microphones are particularly useful in recording situations where a microphone cannot be positioned within the desired distance of the sound source to produce a sufficiently loud signal level. Typical applications are film and video recordings, where the microphone should not appear in the picture. The KMR 82 is very often used on stage.
