Description
The Schoeps OCT-3D Set is a complete 9-channel microphone bundle designed for 7.1 or 9.1 surround recording using the OCT-3D technique. It expands the OCT technique with height channels to provide natural spatialization and balanced imaging. It includes six CCM 41 LG miniature supercardioid mics, three CCM 4 LG miniature cardioid mics, two MAB 1000 stereo bars, a CB-MAB mounting bracket, four STR 250 support rods, nine K 5 LU LEMO to XLR adapter cables, and nine SGC stand mounts. The support rods create distance between the lower- and upper-level microphones to reduce their correlation in the diffuse field. Alternatively, the four supercardioid mics for the vertical channels can be mounted directly on the stereo bars.None Supercardioid with highly consistent directionality throughout its frequency rangeNone Ideally suited for music and speechNone High directivity, comparable to that of a short "shotgun" microphone up through mid range frequenciesNone Often preferred for use in film sound recording and as a spot microphone in orchestras
