MKH 8018, for sports broadcasting and filming applications. The high- class shotgun mic completes the brand’s MKH 8000 range of RF condenser microphones, which excel in the field due to their climate- proof ruggedness and natural sound capture with no off-axis coloration. “The MKH 8018 is a high-class shotgun model that rounds off our MKH portfolio at the top end,” said Kai Lange, senior product manager for the MKH series. “It has extremely low self-noise and excellent sound – very clear and pure due to the mic’s great off-axis rejection. Moisture resistance, minimal non-linear distortion and a balanced audio signal at the transformerless, fully floating output are further benefits of the RF condenser technology, which Sennheiser has been perfecting for more than 60 years.” As the MKH 8018 has been designed for broadcasting and filming applications, the usual wide frequency response of the MKH mics has been limited to 40-20,000Hz. The MKH 8018 is delivered complete with an MZQ 100 microphone clip, MZW 8018 foam windshield and threaded plastic transport tube.
