Information

Schoeps KMIT Colette Shotgun Microphone Capsule

Introducing the KMIT, Schoeps' latest in the shotgun microphone space. Part of the ever popular Colette series, the KMIT is derived directly from the CMIT series, inheriting the same acoustical qualities such as high directivity combined with low colouration of lateral-incident sound, and very smoothly increasing directivity at higher frequencies. The KMIT, CMIT 5 and MiniCMIT can be interchanged without altering the sound.

The KMIT is compatible with all amplifiers of the Colette series, e.g. with the current analog amplifiers CMC6 and CMC 1 as well as the digital amplifier CMD42. Thus, Schoeps now offers for the first time a digital shotgun microphone that can be controlled via the Remote App. (iOS & Android)

Schoeps offer the KMIT Microphone separately, or as a Mono Set with a CMD 42, or Mono Set with a CMC 1 U amplifier.

Features

  • Shotgun microphone capsule for the Colette series
  • Acoustical characteristics identical to those of the CMIT 5 and MiniCMIT
  • Compatible with all the Colette-series Amplifiers, e.g. CMC 1, CMC 6 & 6XT, CMD42 and CMC 5
  • Steep, integrated low-cut filter (ca. 70 Hz)
  • Immune to moisture
  • Includes W 140 foam windscreen
  • Available in two seperate Mono Sets with either CMD 42 or CMC 1 U amplifiers.

Practice

The KMIT's sound quality is the same as that of the CMIT 5/MiniCMIT, apart from slight differences in high-pass filtering that depend on which amplifier is being used. The choice among CMC 6, CMC 1 U/L or CMD 42 will mostly be determined by practical circumstances - the size and weight of the setup, and the availability of an AES42 input.

Among the analog amplifiers, Schoeps generally recommends the CMC 1 due to its small size, optimal interference protection, and high maximum sound levels. The CMC 1 L amplifier with miniature Lemo connector allows for an especially compact setup; the CMC 1 U has a somewhat longer, standard XLR connector. The CMC 6 amplifier is likewise compatible - and with the CMC 6 xt version, signals up to 40 kHz can be recorded for "downpitching" sound-design applications.

The digital CMD 42 amplifier offers the greatest number of options, but requires an AES42 input. The CMD's Remote App (available free of charge for iOS or Android phones) allows all three filters of the CMIT 5 to be enabled in the CMD 42 as well.

The built-in, steep high-pass filter allows the KMIT to be used unproblematically on a boom. The steepest cutoff occurs when a CMC 1 is used; the CMC 42 offers a further, additional high-pass filter with an adjustable cutoff frequency.
