The MKH 8030 figure-8 microphone enables audio professionals to capture pristine sound across an extended frequency range in challenging environments. Featuring a symmetrical push-pull transducer, this acoustically open design ensures unrestricted sound flow with minimal off-axis coloration. The low-tension diaphragm delivers exceptional sensitivity and a wide frequency response for authentic, undistorted recordings. Engineered for versatility, it is an ideal choice for M-S, double M-S, and Blumlein stereo configurations. Its robust metal housing and moisture-resistant RF technology provide reliable performance in humid, hot, or freezing conditions. The permanent RF current flow at the microphone capsule naturally evaporates moisture, making it perfect for outdoor broadcasting and field recording. This compact module integrates seamlessly into the MKH 8000 series ecosystem for professional-grade audio capture.
