I have been using Schoeps microphones on my productions since 1975. I find them to be the standard and my first 'go to'. Their accuracy, pleasing timbre and flexibility are second to none.
I have been using Schoeps microphones on my productions since 1975. I find them to be the standard and my first 'go to'. Their accuracy, pleasing timbre and flexibility are second to none.
I regularly use the V4 mic on not only vocals but any and all instruments. I also use the MK 4V with CMC 6.Productions where they have been used include: The Rolling Stones, Keith Richards, Bob Dylan, The Band, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker, The Last Waltz, Neil Young, Jennifer Warnes, Wayne Shorter, Ivan Neville, Blondie Chaplin, Nick Tremulis and more...
Description The directional response is especially well maintained even at higher frequencies, due to the acoustically transparent housing. There is less high-frequency emphasis of off-axis sound than occurs with most small, axial-response cardioids. The MK 4V still sounds somewhat brighter than the MK 4, however, because of its overall frequency response.
