The Sennheiser MKH416 is an industry-standard short shotgun interference microphone optimized for recording superior-quality audio in a variety of professional applications. With its supercardioid/lobar polar pattern, compact and rugged design, and tailored frequency response, the MKH416 is ideal for film, television, radio, and voiceover work—especially in outdoor environments.
Supercardioid Polar Pattern Provides Tight Focus and Feedback Rejection
The MKH416's supercardioid polar pattern provides tight directivity, focusing in on the desired sound source while attenuating unwanted background noise and rejecting feedback. Its lobar pattern above 2 kHz helps capture subtle details and articulation. The result is a clear, focused, and feedback-free recording perfect for dialog, voiceovers, and sound effects.
Tailored Frequency Response for Natural and Accurate Reproduction
With a frequency range of 40 Hz to 20 kHz, the MKH416 is tailored to capture the natural nuances and timbre of the human voice as well as surrounding ambience. The subtle boosts and dips in its frequency response are carefully tuned to reproduce sound as accurately and transparently as possible, ideal for any application where sonic truth is paramount.
Rugged and Reliable for Demanding Productions
Featuring a durable matte black finish and high immunity to humidity thanks to its RF condenser design, the MKH416 is built to withstand the rigors of field production and environmental changes. Its compact size also makes it highly portable and enables discreet placement, while the included MZW415 windscreen and MZQ 100 microphone clamp provide protection from the elements and versatility in mounting options.
A Standard for Professionals Worldwide
Trusted by audio engineers in film, television, radio, and voiceover studios around the globe, the Sennheiser MKH416 shotgun microphone has earned its reputation as an industry standard for quality and performance. With its versatility, rugged build, and ability to capture pristine and impactful recordings, the MKH416 should be an essential part of any professional audio toolkit.
