ProAudio Review - April 2008 - (Page 8) Letters off-axis dialog than the Sennheiser 416. This makes it an excellent choice for documentary work and ENG shoots where it is often unpredictable who will be speaking next. Usually, just a slight shift in angle was enough to make up for any loss in presence. The onboard low-cut and high-boost are well implemented and easily accessible. For on-camera mounting, the low cut sounds good and is an excellent quick fix. The highend boost adds a 4 dB shelving boost at 8kHz. According to the manufacturer ’s literature, it is intended to make up for any high frequency loss caused by a zeppelin and windjammer (or “dead cat”). I did not have an opportunity to try this out, but it is an interesting idea. Overall, the sound was brighter than the Sennheiser MKH60. Even with the onboard high frequency boost disengaged, there is a boost from 10kHz on up which translates to a lot of distracting ‘air’ in the upper frequencies. This is absent on the MKH60. For most The mic’s pickup pattern seems to be wider and more forgiving of off-axis dialog than the Sennheiser 416. This makes it an excellent choice for documentary work and ENG shoots where it is often unpredictable who will be speaking next. location sound work, especially the limited frequency range of dialog recording, there is very little useful information above 12kHz. Other than this minor complaint, which is admittedly a matter of taste, the sound was well balanced with plenty of low end. I found the low end adds nice warmth to dialog without sacrificing presence. In addition, the high SPL rating was helpful for recording some wild gunshots for one of my projects without the slightest hint of distortion. — Matt Hamilton 8 | ProAudio Review | April 2007 www.proaudioreview.com http://www.auralex.com http://www.auralex.com http://www.auralex.com http://www.proaudioreview.com
