MKE 2 Gold
Condensor clip-on microphone with omnidirectional characteristic for
top soundquality and robustness requirements. Suitable for vocal trans-
mission, close-up miking, and miking of instruments in all fields of live
sound transmission.
Characteristics
• Extremely small size, i.e. unobtrusive attachment to articles of clothing
or the body.
• Insensitive to structure-borne noise.
• Linear frequency response.
• Largely insensitive to penetration of sweat due to the patented tan-
dem diaphragm. This design comprises two individual diaphragms in-
stalled on both sides of the diaphragm ring. The bottom diaphragm is
electrically active and forms the capacitive electro-acoustic transducer
together with the back plate. The top diaphragm is passive and seals
the microphone against sweat. Robust sealing of the housing is en-
sured by a silicone ring. Since the diaphragms are extremely small and
thin (less than 1 μm), the fact that they are made of different materials
does not influence their acoustic properties - over a wide frequency
range, these diaphragms oscillate like a tandem.
