Double M/S Set CMIT Double M/S Set

This double M/S set employs a Schoeps CMIT 5 U "shotgun" microphone for the front M channel in place of the usual cardioid.
The two other microphones (CCM 8Lg figure-8 for the S channel, and CCM 4Lg cardioid for the rear-facing M channel) are secured to the CMIT 5 U by means of two KMSC double brackets.

In this double M/S variant the windscreen is distinctly longer than in the conventional arrangement with a front-facing cardioid.

The Schoeps "Splitter Box" which is available for the other double M/S sets can also be used with this set; dematrixing can take place in the same manner.

Included in this complete set for double M/S surround recordings are:

• 1 × CMIT 5 U shotgun microphone
• 1 × CCM 8L figure-8 compact microphone
• 1 × CCM 4L cardioid compact microphone
• shock mount for a CMIT 5 U shotgun microphone with KMSC clips for the two compact microphones
• adapter cable from two Lemo plugs and one XLR-3 plug to one XLR-7 output
• WSR DMS CMIT LU basket-type windscreen
• WJ DMS CMIT ”Windjammer” windscreen cover
• KDMS 5U 5-meter (16.5') XLR-7 extension cable
• DMS passive splitter box
