MK 4 VXS
 

FEATURES:

  • Cardioid for speech pickup at close range (under 10 cm)
  • Considerable attenuation of low frequencies
  • Emphasis of high frequencies
 

This cardioid capsule, with its main axis from its side, improves speech intelligibility in very loud environments. It is designed for the very closest speech pick-up, i.e. directly in front of the speaker's mouth.

Its low-frequency roll-off is compensated by proximity effect. Thus the capsule has (up to the point of its high-frequency emphasis) a constant frequency response for the speaker's voice, while showing a roll-off at low frequencies for all sound that originates from a greater distance. As a result, background sounds are picked up less strongly than the person speaking.

The MK 4 VXS/CCM 4 VXS should be used with the popscreen B 5 in order to prevent "popping" sounds from vocal plosives.

It has proven itself especially when used as the CCM 4 VXS (i.e. mounted on a gooseneck) in the transmission of sporting events. In this case it is attached to the user's headset.
