Sennheiser MKH8020

This omni-directional condenser is ideal for recording large and small sound sources, for Decca Tree recording and, thanks to its lack of proximity effect, also works great for close miking. Its vast frequency response of 10Hz-60kHz makes it a natural for pipe organ, grand piano and double bass.

Part of the new MKH 8000 microphone series, it offers impressive clarity with a simple yet profound modular design that cuts self-noise and distortion to the barest minimum. Along with the microphone, you get the MZX8000 XLR module, MZQ8000 microphone clip, MZW8000 windshield and aluminum transport case.
