Description
ORTF stereo recording was pioneered by the engineers at the French state broadcaster in the 1960s, and is defined as using a stereo pair of microphones with the capsules spaced 17cm apart, and at an angle of 110 degrees to each other.
A specially designed Rycote mounting adapter bar keeps the microphones at the correct spacing and angle for ORTF recording, and the Lyre suspension provide a solution that is extremely resistant to unwanted vibrations such as cable-borne and handling noise.
The 5-pin XLRm output Connbox uses detachable Binder cables, with 130 mm tail - with MZL connectors.
Suspension Medium ORTF (MZL) is suitable for a matched pair of Sennheiser MKH 8020/40/50 in ORTF Stereo configuration in an AE Windshield. Includes a MZL stereo Connbox.
Features
- Patented Lyre suspensions provide complete isolation against handling noise whilst safely gripping the microphone
- Our new small and medium modular bars are now more durable and less prone to wear and tear.
- Comfortable pistol-grip handles allow handheld use, but also have a 3/8" boom adaptor in the base for quick transfer boom operation
