Schoeps MK 2S Omnidirectional Microphone Capsule
The Schoeps MK 2S, the company’s most popular pressure transducer, is an omnidirectional Colette capsule with a slightly brighter sound than the MK 2 and MK 2H.
A moderate high-frequency lift on axis makes up for the loss in the diffuse field near the critical distance. Off axis and in the reverberant sound, it rolls off only slightly. Its response sits between the MK 2 and the MK 2XS.
It works as a main or room microphone, especially in larger rooms, and in two- and three-microphone stereo arrays placed near the critical distance. For spaced A/B stereo and the Decca Tree, Schoeps recommends the KA 40 sphere attachments. It screws onto the CMC 6, CMC 1 U, or CMC 1 L amplifier.
