Sanken Audio CMS-10 Stereo / Mono Switchable Shotgun Microphone with DC Biased Condenser, Matte Black , Includes FREE Copy of Vasst Training DVD:"Now Hear This!"Superior Sound for Digital Video $89 Value

The Sanken Audio CMS-10 provides extremely high-resolution audio to match today's advanced picture quality. This versatile microphone is switchable between a very sharp directional Mono and rich Stereo in environmental imaging. The stereo angle is 127°. Unlike conventional shotgun microphones, the CMS-10 uses a unique second-order pressure gradient design, enabling precision directional response through multiple cardioid elements in a front-back array.

The capsules combine line microphone performance and second-order gradient response in a single compact system. Stereophonic localization depends primarily on signal accuracy and channel separation in the 400Hz to 3kHz range. Pattern control of the CMS-10 has been optimized in this range. Very low and very high frequency response has been optimized along the frontal axis so that the "target" on-axis sounds are clearly delineated.
