International. More and more journalists and cameramen are leaving their traditional video cameras at home and using an iPad to report. Therefore, the great challenge in this new way of covering events or recording interviews is to obtain high-quality audio, almost impossible to achieve with the microphone included in these devices.
A natural and vivid sound is already possible with the professional shotgun microphone, reference MKE 600 presented by Sennheiser, which allows you to easily connect to an iPad or iPhone using the new KA 600 i connector cable.
"Mobile phones and tablets are fast becoming an important part of the work of professional reporters. We know that an iPhone has already been used to report live on a television news program. To ensure that the audio quality is optimal during this type of fast and flexible format reporting, we created our microphone," explained Kai Lange, Product Manager for Wired Microphones at Sennheiser.
The screwed cable of the KA 600 i has a length of 40 centimeters and connects from an XLR-3 plug to a four-pole mini jack at right angles with the specific wiring for an iPad and an iPhone. The cable is available in any audio store, ready to be placed.
The manufacturing company stressed that the high level of intelligibility in speeches and good directionality of the MKE 600, guarantee audio quality in reports and interviews.
