Schoeps develops new dish
The parabolic dish has been built for high directivity at medium and high frequencies
Schoeps has collaborated with Swedish manufacturer Telinga to develop its new parabolic dish and microphone system. It has been created in response to the need for ‘pristine sound’ in sports broadcasts and nature recording.
The parabolic dish has been built for high directivity at medium and high frequencies. To achieve a balanced frequency response, the positioning and microphone type are specifically matched to the dish. Schoeps recommends its omni CCM 2, as well as its CCM 21 (wide cardioid) and CCM 4 (cardioid) directional microphones for use with the dish. The manufacturer’s website explains the differences and details which type to choose for varying applications.
A new, free plug-in, ParabolEQ, handles signal equalisation. This reportedly delivers a transparent frequency response between 100Hz and 20kHz, depending on the microphone type and other parameters. An integrated Rycote windscreen addresses wind problems when using pressure gradient microphones.
