• Frequency Response: It has a wide frequency response, typically ranging from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, ensuring that it captures both low and high frequencies accurately.
• Compatibility: Designed for use with the Schoeps Colette series microphones, the KMIT can be paired with various amplifier bodies for different applications.
• Compact Design: Its compact size makes it suitable for discreet microphone setups, especially in film and broadcast environments.

• Compatible with all amplifiers in the Colette series, such as CMC 1, CMC 6 (xt), CMD 42, and even with the CMC 5...
• Steep, integrated low-cut filter (approx. 70 Hz)
• Moisture resistant

Applications

• Film and Television: Often used for boom miking and location sound capture due to its directional nature.
• Live Sound: Suitable for stage performances, providing clear audio capture while minimizing feedback.
• Broadcasting: Ideal for interviews and discussions where clarity and directionality are essential.

Additional Information

The KMIT is the shotgun microphone capsule for the modular Colette series. It is directly derived from the CMIT series and inherits the same acoustic qualities, such as high directivity combined with low coloration of laterally arriving sound and a very gradually increasing directivity at higher frequencies. The KMIT, CMIT 5, and MiniCMIT can be interchanged without changing the sound. The KMIT is compatible with all amplifiers in the Colette series, such as the current analog amplifiers CMC 6 and CMC 1, as well as the digital amplifier CMD 42. With this, SCHOEPS offers for the first time a digital shotgun microphone that can be controlled via the Remote App.

The Schoeps KMIT capsule is a favored choice among audio professionals looking for high-fidelity sound reproduction in a compact and versatile package. If you have specific questions or need more detailed information, feel free to ask!
