Description
Sanken Shotgun microphone CS-3e
The Sanken Shotgun microphone CS-3e: innovative technology with 3 capsules for high rejection. Conventional shotgun microphones use a line capsule array and a slotted pipe at the front of the capsule to create high directivity by using phase interference in the housing. With this conventional design, high directivity is not achieved in the mid-low frequency range, although high directivity is maintained in the high frequency range. Conventional shotgun microphones are at a disadvantage because they invariably pick up unwanted noises coming from the back and sides.
To solve this problem, conventional shotgun microphones designed for high directivity in the mid-low frequencies need a length of more than one metre. However, long shotgun microphones seriously affect mobility and are not ideal for field recording.
The CS-3e's remarkable performance is based on the combination of a second-gradient and line microphone with three directional condenser elements, using new Poly-Gold-Phenylene-Sulphide (PPS) membranes for optimum humidity and temperature stability. The CS-3e is small and lightweight with a low-cut switch to meet the diverse needs of location and studio recording. The standard 19 mm diameter allows the use of a wide range of accessories designed for enhanced performance and field mobility.
The CS-3e virtually eliminates the proximity effect and maintains sharp directivity, while sound characteristics do not change with varying distances between sources and microphone. This is a significant advantage over all other directional microphones.
