This mic is such a great deal that every videographer should have it in their arsenal. You may eventually want to add some hypercardioids and a medium shotgun too, so you can be technically prepared for everything. Nevertheless, when it comes to short shotguns Sennheiser MKE 600 is the deal. Of course, it is more expensive than other entry-level models, but you get the performance. Better are only professional shotguns, but they’ll cost you minimum 3 times as much, and will require a good source of phantom power. Pros For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs. I don't use the battery option for phantom power. Instead I rely on the phantom power provided by my interface. I recommend an interface with a solid preamp. Obviously lesser quality preamps are going to impact your potential for quality sound from the mic.
The mic is very quiet with no discernible onboard noise. It rejects noise from the side and rear very well. Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty Sennheiser MKE 600 is a fantastic quality, 10” short-range shotgun. Although considered an entry model, which is available at rather modest price, it has just about professional performance! Moreover, I’d say this mic is probably the best raw performer in its range. This is not only about the quality but also about the design. It may appear modest, but it’s certainly more convenient than both AT897 and Rode NTG2. It also performs great in both close and open areas without relying on post EQ. It seems, Sennheiser took best of both mics for their MKE 600, and then improved it even further. Sound & quality
Ce sont deux micros fort identique en terme de qualité sonore et de fabrication, mais mon choix ses porté sur le MKE 600 pour les raisons suivantes: I've even used it to mic a guitar amp cabinet while the drums were playing with about 0,5m of space in between but I placed the mic at a 90 angle from the drums with the low-cut on and the recording was almost completely clean.
Plus, with an integrated switchable low-cut filter, the MKE 600 allows you to minimize wind noise and low-frequency rumble when recording. It can be powered via P48 phantom power or using batteries. A battery power switch with a low battery indicator caters to cameras and equipment that do not offer phantom power operation. This powerful microphone is the ideal companion for film-makers, journalists, and vloggers. What's included? Sometimes it happens that there may not be enough dynamic range at a particular volume, but this can always be controlled and corrected. You should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail. To be honest, I'm willing to work on this mic, the only reason I'd change it to a 416 is because of the low noise and better directivity. Shotgun microphones have become the go-to choice for a huge amount of uses in the film and TV industry. Their unique design allows you to achieve exceptional directional audio capture in a diverse range of environments. The interference tube in front of the capsule allows your mic to reject sound from the sides and rear with phenomenal results, without affecting the sound from the front. Due to this unique design feature, shotgun mics can be mounted out of your shot, either on a boom or directly on your camera, and provide you with outstanding sound quality without having to hide microphones in costumes or behind props and objects. Incredible high quality sound - wherever you areLe bruit de fond est moins présent que sur le ntg4+ (même si il est plutôt faible et très correct sur ces deux micros). Power Supply: 48V (+/-4V) (P48, IEC 61938) via 3-pin XLR OR battery/rechargeable battery (AA size, 1.5V/1.2V) Frequency pattern of MKE 600 is nothing short of epic and I love that curve above any other shotgun. It is reasonably flat and while peaking in the upper range with a slight 2-3 dB boost it gives just about enough presence not to sound “dull”. However, unlike with harsher AT897 this transition is very smooth, natural and unobtrusive. The lower end initially rolls off at 100 Hz, while the “low cut” switch sets it at 200 Hz. With this move, Sennheiser outsmarts both AT897 and NTG-2 whose “low cut” switches are set at 100 Hz and can’t roll off any further. The thing is, anything below 100 Hz is hardly usable anyway as it’s mostly mud and noise, but, it doesn’t stop there and sometimes you may want to cut it further. Sennheiser MKE 600 gives you that opportunity. 200 Hz is the range that often contributes to some annoying boominess, also amplifying wind and machinery noise – so this can be a great fix especially for run and gun /ENG situations. We’ll start by running through our selections and then dive into the details of each one. If money isn't an issue and you only want the best, skip down to number 5, the Neumann KMR 81i, because it's by far the best-grade shotgun microphone on this list. However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
