Sennheiser MKE 600

The Sennheiser MKE 600 is a masterpiece of audio recording, designed for demanding use in the field of video recording. Its outstanding performance and user-friendliness make it the first choice for filmmakers and videographers who value clear and uninterrupted audio recordings.

Imagine you are filming in a lively environment, where background noises can quickly compromise the quality of your recordings. Here, the MKE 600 proves to be an indispensable partner. It is distinguished by its precise directional characteristics, which allow you to focus on the sound in front of the camera while minimizing side and distracting noises. This feature is not only useful in loud environments but also when you want to create a selective listening experience that immerses the viewer directly into the action.

Wind is often the enemy of good audio recordings, but the MKE 600 tackles this with a specially designed "Low-Cut" filter that significantly reduces wind noise. This feature is particularly advantageous in open spaces or during outdoor recordings where wind and weather are unpredictable.

The flexibility in the microphone's power supply is another plus. For video cameras without phantom power, the MKE 600 offers the option of being battery-powered. An intelligent battery switch with a "Low Batt" indicator warns you before the power runs out, allowing you to effectively manage power consumption and focus on your creative work rather than battery levels.

The robust construction of the MKE 600 withstands the rigors of daily shooting. A full-metal housing protects the microphone's interior while providing remarkable noise isolation. This means that even if you or your camera moves, the microphone only captures the intended sound without unwanted vibrations or handling noise.

With the microphone, you receive a shock mount that stabilizes the MKE 600 and provides additional freedom of movement during filming. The included foam windscreen enhances the fight against wind noise, and the coiled cable allows for flexible connection between the microphone and camera. Everything comes in a convenient carrying case that simplifies the transport and storage of the microphone.

Whether for professional film recordings or ambitious hobby projects, it delivers the sound quality you need for your projects.
