Choose MK 21 when a cardioid feels too focused but an omni admits too much room. Choose MK 22 for a slightly tighter open-cardioid response or MK 4 for conventional cardioid pickup.
The Schoeps MK 21 is a wide cardioid Colette capsule that combines much of an omnidirectional capsule’s open, natural sound with useful forward focus and reduced rear pickup.
Its gentle directivity and mild proximity effect make it a flexible choice for spot miking, acoustic instruments, main pairs and natural stereo recording.
