About Schoeps MK 2S

You'll experience superior sound capture with the Schoeps MK 2S Nickel Omnidirectional Microphone Capsule, a professional-grade, high-quality audio equipment designed for a wide array of applications. This advanced microphone capsule is engineered with a slight high-frequency emphasis for frontal sound incidence, ensuring optimal audio clarity.

Unlike other models, the MK 2S features a minimal rolloff of high frequencies off-axis and in the reverberant sound field. This unique frequency response characteristic positions it between the MK 2 and the MK 3 models, making it an innovative and versatile choice for audio professionals.

The MK 2S Omnidirectional Microphone Capsule boasts a broad frequency range of 20Hz to 20kHz, offering exceptional versatility in recording various sounds and instruments. With its high sensitivity of 12mV/Pa and a low noise level, it achieves a high signal-to-noise ratio of 82dB-A. This feature ensures clear, high-quality recordings even in noisy environments, making it a reliable choice for both recording and live sound applications.

This durable microphone capsule has proven particularly useful in two- and three-microphone stereo arrays. Its strategic placement near the reverberation radius of the sound field presents a sonically balanced pickup, a feature favored by many recording engineers. For spaced microphone ("A/B") stereo recording and especially the "Decca Tree" method, the use of KA 40 accessory spheres is recommended.

In summary, the Schoeps MK 2S Nickel Omnidirectional Microphone Capsule is an excellent choice for those seeking professional, high-quality sound capture in a variety of settings.
