microphone capsul, dynamic microphone
General Description
The capsule design is based on the capsules used in the vocal microphones of the Sennheiser e 900 series. Acoustically optimized for loud stage use, the MD 5235 allows vocalists to cut through high sound levels.
Features
- Rugged sound inlet basket for rough stage use
- Shock-mounted capsule minimizes handling noise and vibration
- Floating Directivity: The directivity changes from narrow super-cardioid at very high frequencies over cardioid to wide cardioid at very low frequencies. By this means, high-frequency feedback is effectively rejected while the low-end sounds rich and full. Furthermore, the proximity effect is reduced as well as the sensitivity to wind and handling noise.
- High feedback rejection
- Very good vocal projection
- High speech intelligibility
- Powerful sound for live vocal performances
- Hum compensating coil protects against electromagnetic interference
- Very lightweight aluminium voice coil for excellent transient and good treble response
- Available in black and nickel
- Compatible with SKM 5200 and SKM 5000
CONSUMER ALERT
Most users do not need a license to operate this wireless microphone system. Nevertheless, operating this microphone system without a license is subject to certain restrictions: the system may not cause harmful interference; it must operate at a low power level (not in excess of 50 milliwatts); and it has no protection from interference received from any other device. Purchasers should also be aware that the FCC is currently evaluating use of wireless microphone systems, and these rules are subject to change. For more information, call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (TTY: 1-888-TELL-FCC) or visit the FCC’s wireless microphone website at

Glossary
| Frequency response |
| The frequency response of a microphone is given within the limits defined by the manufacturer. In studio condenser microphones it is generally within the range of between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. |
| Pick-up pattern |
| Also known as polar pattern, directivity. According to their acoustic design, microphones differ in their sensitivity towards sound from different directions. Pressure microphones have a sensitivity that is largely independent of direction (omni-directional pick-up pattern). Pressure gradient microphones have the pick-up patterns wide cardioid, cardioid, super-cardioid or figure-of-eight. Interference microphones can be used to achieve a further concentration of the pick-up pattern (lobar pick-up pattern). As a special case, dummy head microphones achieve the pick-up pattern of the human ear/head (dummy head stereo). |
| Sensitivity in free field, no load (1kHz) |
| Voltage measured at the unloaded output of a microphone which is exposed to a sound pressure of 1 Pa and a frequency of 1 kHz in an anechoic chamber. |
| Transducer principle |
| Two transducer principles have become established for the conversion of electric energy into mechanical energy: electrodynamic and electrostatic transducers, whereby the latter is only to be found in audiophile systems, due to their relatively high manufacturing costs. Electrodynamic transducers basically consist of a ring-shaped permanent magnet and an oscillation coil, which is fixed to the receiver diaphragm. When an audio-frequency alternating current is passed through the oscillation coil, it is caused to vibrate in accordance with the audio-frequency alternating current, thus causing the diaphragm to vibrate in the same way. |
