Overview
The Sennheiser MKH 50 P48 Microphone is a premium professional condenser microphone designed for precise spot capturing in both recording and sound reinforcement applications. It features outstanding attenuation at the sides of the capsule, ensuring focused pickup while minimizing off-axis noise. With its broad frequency response and high sensitivity, the MKH 50 delivers crystal-clear audio reproduction across various sound sources. Additionally, it includes a low-frequency roll-off switch to reduce rumble and noise, as well as a pre-attenuation switch for handling high transients when placed close to the sound source. Powered by +48V phantom power, the MKH 50 is ideal for capturing vocals and instruments with exceptional fidelity.
