Properties:

The Sennheiser MKH 8018 is a high-quality RF condenser microphone specifically designed for demanding stereo recordings in film, television, and nature documentaries. With its impressive directivity and three switchable stereo settings – MS stereo, XY stereo (narrow), and XY stereo (wide) – the microphone adapts flexibly to any acoustic environment and always delivers a natural, detailed sound image. Whether in complex outdoor shoots, atmospheric nature recordings, or studio use: the MKH 8018 impresses with excellent sound quality and high adaptability. An integrated low-cut filter (-3 dB at 70 Hz) effectively reduces disturbing wind and handling noise and ensures clear, clean recordings – even under challenging conditions.
