Description

The balanced XLR inputs have an impedance of 100K ohm. .. The IHF unbalanced -10 dBV rca line outputs have a 150 ohm impedance." 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:

The Sennheiser MKE600 is one of the top-quality microphones from this company, an ideal video camera microphone that can be attached to a boom or for use with your own device. It has been designed so you're able record in any situation and will never miss capturing unique moments again. The MKE 200 is in line with entry-level budget onboard mic options, benefitting from the Sennheiser professional lineup in design and sound. It lets through low-end frequencies and comes to life in a vlog or close proximity setup. It’s compact, lightweight, and pleasant to look at, which makes the Sennheiser MKE 200 a great all-around choice. It's a shotgun, but it's not your average tube screamer. The MKE600 frequency pattern is nothing short of epic and I love that curve above any other shotguns-it really stands out from those dull sounding ones with an annoying peak in the upper range as well as being reasonably flat enough so you don't get fatigued listening over longer periods without getting lost at individual peaks or valleys along its length when compared side by side against more traditional designs whose tonality may change drastically depending on what channel they're played through because there isn't just one output volume level available across all channels like we have here. Both the AT 897 and MKE600 microphones are professional balanced -4 dB level devices, not -10 dB level consumer ones. There is an impedence mismatch. They are designed to output a sine wave with + and - voltages on the 3 pins. You are only using the + side of the wave. I like the Sennheiser MKE 200 audio characteristics and hardware. Granted, it’s bulkier than other shotgun mics and sits on the higher end of the price range, but it certainly looks professional, stable, and capable. The built-in wind protection inside the capsule design means it’s more forgiving when used without the furry windshield, which I tend to do all the time so that also comes in handy.As for the speaker outputs, directly from the mixer they ought to be line level, which would be fine. But you certainly don't want to take the amplified signal that is being sent to the speakers. Also, you'd need to split the signal, which may degrade the quality. The mixer ought to have other outputs that you could use instead of the speaker outputs. It's a matter of setting up the mixer so that the signal is routed appropriately. The best audio would probably be a balanced line level output from the mixer (although of course the ATEM doesn't have a balanced input, so you'd need to convert it). The best microphone in the world on the camera is not going to be as good as a microphone that's right in front of whoever is speaking. Ideally the output impedance of a device should be one tenth the input impedance of the device you plug it into for the best sound. The 416 is THE short shotgun that all others have been and will be compared to, my untrained ear can't tell the difference between this mic and the NTG 3.

Why can't I get the adjustable volume Headset outlet to work? I have tried setting the ATEM to line and mic with a very loud hum and no usable sound. While the MKE 600 and 200 cater to different needs and it would be unfair to directly compare them to one another, it serves as a reference to the Sennheiser MKE 600’s ability to handle more complex environments with less dramatic falloff the further away you are from the mic. All the little annoyances that we've had with NTG-2 and AT897 are simply not there in MKE 600. One reason why I love this product so much is because you can have it sit right on top of your preamp, router table or even next to where ever work happens most frequently without worrying about getting buzzes from other electronics. The MKE 600 is a versatile mic that can be used when any situation suits you. It's perfect for all types of performances and environments, from small talk in between songs or interviews to speaking up at conferences. The Sennheiser MKE600 mic is also a great choice for those looking to record their voice and instruments. It has better windscreens, so you won't need the optional ones that come with other mics plus it's affordable.

Build & package

Buy Sennheiser MKE 200 Professional Shotgun Mics Both the MKE 200 and MKE 600 are attached to my Sony A7 IV. Benton Collins wrote:But whatever he chooses, the main takeaway is don't use a shotgun for interior work. 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 A single battery charge is said to provide up to 150 hours or just over 6 days of continuous use. Note, that there’s no auto-power-down feature. Power and low-cut filter switch are the only buttons on the MKE 600 itself. 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.

Benton Collins wrote:I had previously used a ME66 for interior work before I knew better. I now use a Audix SCX1-HC Hypercardioid, what an amazing difference! No more room echo and much better vocal tone! For exterior work that demands better than what the ME66 can provide, I use the MKH416 which is much better than the ME66. I've never had it shut down on me unexpectedly because the low battery warning comes in well before it actually runs out. Talking about battery life, it is amazing. One battery lasts for days and since it's only one cell you can just have a reserve ready in the carrying pouch at all times.La batterie rechargeable du ntg4+ peut sembler un atout pour les tournage, mais je suis encore méfiant sur ce qui est des batteries rechargeables (sur les micros), sachant que a forcer de les charger-décharger cela peux vraiment diminuer la durée de vie de celle-ci. Comme je n'enregistrer que sur un enregistreur externe avec une alimentation Phantom, pas besoin de batterie intégré. More testing and recordings are needed before I finalize my thoughts on the MKE 600 and 200, but my early impressions of the two are positive. The MKE 600 has a professional swag with a few important features for modern-day creators and videographers, while its versatility to switch between shooting environments and the way it handles itself is very attractive. Noise is kept to a minimum which offers wiggle room for post-processing. The MKE 600 from my early hands-on time delivers practical, lightweight, professional audio for different audio scenarios. The battery and phantom power options put it in a unique category, satisfying the needs of creators and professional field shooters for high-fidelity audio that can still be used in run-and-gun situations. Many will find the MKE 600’s versatility as an on-camera and fixed sound setup an attractive proposition compared to larger and more expensive audio mic alternatives. Sennheiser MKE 200 A large tubular capsule design of the MKE 200. Buy Sennheiser In the mean time, I will try tapping the Church Sound Mixer speaker feed for my YouTube LiveStream of our Services. The headset output caused buzzing/humming weather I set the ATEM to mic or line.

If you are looking for a shotgun mic that is affordable, compact and lightweight, the Sennheiser MKE600 might be the perfect choice. At first glance, it looks like any other shotgun microphone- small with a long cylindrical shape. However, once you get your hands on it and start using it for its intended purpose- to record audio- you will understand why this product is so popular among both amateur videographers as well as professional filmmakers. Read more about what makes this microphone so great here. Shotgun mics may not be the most popular option in a home or studio setting, but they lead the way when it comes to recording in field conditions. So named because of their elongated shape— visually similar to a shotgun barrel— these mics are used for capturing dialogue and sound effects with focus and quality. They usually have excellent noise rejection, and are able to zero in on the sound source near-perfectly. Sometimes it happens that there may not be enough dynamic range at a particular volume, but this can always be controlled and corrected. The Sennheiser MKE 600 shotgun microphone is the perfect choice for all of your recording needs! It has just about professional performance, at an affordable price. You won't find another mic that will perform as well or sound any better than this one in its range - it's truly amazing what they're able to do with such simple technology these days.Sure, there are situations where a shotgun won't capture what you need at an interior location, but there are many situations where it's the ONLY mic that will capture what you need. It really comes down to the type of situation and/or location. What is/are the sound source/s? What is the ambient noise? etc etc
