The model SM89 is a highly directional condenser shotgun microphone with distant pickup characteristics suitable for on-location film and television production.
The SM89 is a highly directional condenser shotgun microphone with distant pickup characteristics suitable for on-location film and television production, theater sound reinforcement, spot news coverage, or wildlife recording. The SM89 discriminates at a distance in favor of desired dialogue or effects and against ambient noise, even in noisy surroundings. The on-axis frequency response of the SM89 is very smooth and extended. For clarity and speech intelligibility, a slight presence rise optimizes the high-frequency response to compensate for high-frequency losses. A low-frequency roll-off minimizes pickup of wind, mechanical vibration, ambient noise, and rumble without affecting voice frequencies.
Designed especially for location film and TV production, theater sound reinforcement, and spot news coverage
Highly directional polar pattern optimized for distant pickup
Smooth, wide on-axis response
Greatly suppressed side pickup with minimum comb-filter effects
Two low-cut frequencies, switch selectable
Low impedance, high sensitivity
Extremely low hum, noise, and RF pickup
Uses readily available 11 to 52 Vdc phantom supply
Rugged and reliable; operates over wide range of temperature and humidity
Extremely lightweight: can be suspended on fishpole for long periods of time without operator fatigue
Aircraft-grade materials used throughout
Supplied with foam windscreen and strong luggage-grade carrying case
