PIANISSIMO windshield adapted to the Double MS Sennheiser MKH 8030 + 2 x 8040 (or 8050). WITHOUT MZF.
Suspension completely dedicated, due to the 8030’s high sensitivity to (very) low frequencies.
Due to the nature of the assembly (need for coincidence, reversed rear mic, unbalanced weights), it is NOT possible to fit MZF filters.
It is therefore NECESSARY to provide downstream filtering (recorder) with the following recommended characteristics:
- Analog input filters
- High slope (+18 or +24dB/oct)
- Cut-off frequency “not too high” (between 50 and 80Hz)
It is possible to record without filtering (atmos containing very low frequencies)…but in this case you need to protect the signal from significant “rumbles” by appropriate handling, or on a stand. Post-production filtering remains necessary. It is advisable to apply different filtering, mic by mic, as accurately as possible.
