Well, they must have used some special Schoeps magic because the CMIT 5 U is definitely a shotgun but it retains that beautiful, natural sound quality you expect from Schoeps and even off-axis the response doesn't really change, it just gets quieter. The rear lobe also seems to be much less noticeable than with some other microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are three pushbutton-activated filters:-\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHigh-frequency emphasis (+ 5 dB at 10 kHz) enhances speech intelligibility and compensates for high-frequency loss caused by windscreens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA steep low-cut filter (18 dB\/oct. below 80 Hz) suppresses wind and boom noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA gentle low-frequency rolloff (6 dB\/oct. below 300 Hz) compensates for proximity effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePairs of LEDs next to each pushbutton indicate the status of the filters so you can see how you've set it up even in the dark and those settings are retained when the microphone is switched off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere's what Helmut says about the CMIT range:-\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ciframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Hzv2qUWAxZ4\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"listing k-table\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:700px;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003eFrequency range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003e40 Hz - 20 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003e17 mV\/Pa\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003eEquivalent noise level (A-weighted)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003e14 dB-A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003eEquivalent noise level (CCIR)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003e24 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003eMaximum sound pressure level at 0.5% THD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003e132 dB-SPL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003ePowering voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003e48 V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003eCurrent consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003e4.4 mA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003eMaximum output voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003e1.3 V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003eImpedance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003e50 Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003eMinimum recommended load impedance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003e600 Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003e251 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_odd\"\u003e21 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"listing_even\"\u003e89 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schoeps","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57870607188300,"sku":"SCHCMIT5U","price":1845.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1067\/4628\/2316\/files\/product_cover_8.png?v=1785759205","url":"https:\/\/www.soundkit.co.uk\/products\/schoeps-cmit-5u-shotgun-microphone","provider":"Soundkit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
