Product | KMR81 | Detail Description
Pristine Dialogue, Uncolored Sound in the Digital Domain
The KMR 81 D takes the well-established KMR 81 i shotgun microphone into the digital domain. It provides all of the features of its analog counterpart, which made it a favorite of sound engineers in movie and documentary productions. Additionally, it offers all the advantages of the digital technology, such as an extended dynamic range, a more robust operation (EMC safe) and clipping protection by means of the integrated peak limiter/compressor.
Using the DMI-2 or DMI-8 digital microphone interface together with the Remote Control Software (RCS), any pre-programmed settings may be stored in the microphones.
Further information on this microphone can be found on the webpages of the analog variant, the KMR 81 i. Further information on the Neumann digital microphone technology can be downloaded as PDF.
