• "Prosumer" model for advanced amateur and professional use
 
• For instrumental recording thanks to Sony's sensitive Electret Condenser microphone design
 
• One-point stereo design -a single mic for stereo recording-is like having two microphones in one
 
• Ideal for portable DAT or MD digital recorders with frequency response to 18,000 Hz and 90 dB dynamic range to complement digital recording systems
 
• Mid/Side (MS) capsules for natural stereo panorama; the Mid capsule picks up monophonic sound while the Side capsule picks up left/right difference sound; subtracting and adding the two capsule signals yield separate Left and Right channels - also permit electronic adjustment of pickup angle
 
• Mid/Side (MS) switch selects pickup angle between left and right channel; choose 90° for a single voice or instrument or 120° to pick up many voices and instruments, arranged across the stage
 
• Rotating Mid capsule to adjust the stereo pickup pattern for the widest range of recording situations
 
• Cannon XLR connector from microphone body to supplied cable for secure, reliable, low-noise connection
 
• Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Litz cord for superlative conductivity, minimum loss, minimum noise
 
• L-shaped stereo mini-plug fits portable recorders
