I also got some mics for music producition that I’ll experiment with (Coles 4038s, AKG D12, Shure 55s, RCA Varacoustic, and etc). Having a really high quality sound that brings a nuance to my production(s) is a precedence. Though, if I can get away with saving money, I will go with that option in a heartbeat.Hi anvesh - For reference, I mostly use the Schoeps CCM 41 Lg [supercardoid] and/or MiniCMIT [shotgun] microphones along with DPA 6060 [lavalieres] microphones for cinema/video location recording work. For some, a lot of this information may be difficult to keep up with. But a lot of these features we mentioned really highlight the level of detail Sennhieser put into the MKH416 to make sure not only that the sound you record is of high quality, but that you can focus more on your target audio source and less on your environment.

Professional-grade recording studios can use conventional condenser microphones like the CAD E100S (which is a popular option for voice-over). Lastly, I really appreciate the Sennheiser MKH 416’s ruggedness. It’s another one of those “indestructible” microphones, so you can have peace of mind when using it in the field. Also in this review I tested the Rycote Softie Windshield on the Sennheiser for an outdoor video test on a windy day. So, enough of the gushing – gimme details. Yes, I heard you. OK, here is the skinny.

Using a more versatile approach to the microphone capsule to allow these shifts in patterns is one of the single reasons this microphone is worth the price tag. Working with the different frequencies in audio is its own challenge, and using a microphone that knows what's good & bad will save you a lot of hassle in the long run.

In other words, the MKH 416 isolates sound sources like no other and rejects ambient noise better than the other popular shotgun microphones.
