Stereo Bar for ORTF Recordings
STCg

For information on the ORTF technique please see MSTC 64 Ug as well as in the technical appendix.

Thread: 5/8"-27 NS, with adapter for 3/8" and 1/2"
The SG 20 stand clamp is included.

Note:
The two MK 4 cardioid capsules or CCM 4 cardioid Compact Microphones normally used with the STCg are available as a matched pair.

Miniature Positioning Device for Stereo Recording
M 100 C
  • for ORTF with two axially addressed capsules or microphones: MK 4 capsules + KC Active Cables or CCM 4 Compact Microphones

The M 100 C is the solution for SCHOEPS compact stereo recording rigs. This gT-Barg style mount is unobtrusive with a bar length of only six inches and a black anodized finish.
When shockmounting is critical, the addition of the A 20S and ST 20 3/8 adapter is all that is needed. For installations requiring a small stereo SCHOEPS setup that must be hung, the M 100 C with an H 20g upgrade is perfect.

The device can be tilted forward or backward as needed.
Threads: 5/8"-27 NS with adapter for 3/8" and 1/2"

ORTF Stereo Microphone
MSTC 64 U
  • for recordings with ORTF technique
  • placement relatively uncritical
  • good stereo imaging
  • universally applicable
  • for 12 / 48 V phantom powering

This microphone consists of a T-shaped body with two built-in microphone amplifiers, and a matched pair of MK 4g cardioid capsules of the Colette Modular System which are mounted 170 mm apart with an included angle of 110 (ORTF system). Like the KFM 6 this is a ghead-relatedh arrangement. The stereophonic recording angle* is 95.

This is probably the simplest stereo technique in general use. In almost any situation it produces an evenly-spread stereo image with good localization, often without the need for spot or ambient miking. Setup is particularly quick and simple since the capsule spacing and angles are fixed, with only a single stand and microphone cable required. Placement is relatively uncritical and the technique produces good results even in the hands of an inexperienced or hasty user.

The MSTC 64 accepts any 12 V or 48 V standardized phantom powering, with the maximum sound pressure level being slightly reduced (ca. 4 dB) when powered by 12 V.

The two MK 4g capsules included with the MSTC 64g are a specially selected, matched pair.

The designation MSTC 64g refers to a dual microphone amplifier MSTC 6g equipped with two MK 4g cardioid capsules. Surface finish here: matte gray (g)

Accessories (included):

In many situations the use of an elastic suspension is advisable. Due to the weight of the MSTC, the A 20 S with its stiffer elastics should be used.

Popscreens and windscreens for the MSTC 64 are described in the section.
