Schoeps HSC 4VP

The Schoeps HSC 4VP is a fully integrated headset designed for precise speech recording in environments with high background noise, such as sporting events. It combines a specialized CCM 4VP cardioid microphone with a gooseneck element and high-quality Ultrasone headphones.

Key Features

• Integrated Design: The microphone, gooseneck element, and headphones form a single unit, providing a compact and user-friendly solution.
• Cardioid Microphone with Low-End Roll-Off: The CCM 4VP microphone features a strong low-frequency roll-off and a slight high-frequency boost, helping to suppress background noise and enhance speech intelligibility.
• High-Quality Headphones: The Ultrasone headphones provide excellent sound quality and comfort for extended use.
• Pop Filter: Includes a B 5 pop filter to minimize plosives; a B 5 D pop filter is available for additional protection against wind and plosives.

Applications

This headset is ideal for commentators in enclosed booths or protected environments, such as sporting events, where a moderate low-frequency roll-off is sufficient. The "4VP" version is recommended for these situations.
