Sanken Microphones is introducing at NAB 2015 the new CSR-2 shotgun microphone.
The CSR-2 combines a long acoustic tube and proprietary rectangular capsule design for directivity with a switchable rejection of the mid and low frequency range on the side and rear. In the off position, the switch provides a wider image.
Sanken’s square capsule design and long acoustic tube focuses on the sound source, even at some distance. This directionality and flexibility is accomplished by using line microphone technology for narrow-angle directivity while canceling background sensitivity with two capsules in the low-mid frequency range.
The CSR-2 delivers directivity over a wide frequency range, for capture targeted sounds in location situations with noisy surrounding ambience or in tight spaces with unwanted wall reflections. In order to reduce the sensitivity at 90 degrees off-axis, the front capsule pattern is super-cardioid. It captures the low-mid frequencies that have a longer wavelength than the acoustic tube in the rear of the microphone.
In addition, the CSR-2 uses a second-order pressure gradient array, comprised of two microphone capsules. Their output is added to the line (front) microphone signal when the rear rejection switch is in the “on” position to suppress low frequency background sensitivity.
The CSR-2 suitable for a wide range of uses, such as outdoor location sound, public interviews, sports, drama and variety shows.
Features include:
* Long Reach, Highly Directional Shotgun Microphone with Switchable Rear Rejection
* Wide-Frequency Response
* Flat frequency response beyond 20kHz.
* Easy to handle and operate using 48V Phantom power.
