Neumann laajentaa MCM-klipsimikrofonijärjestelmäänsä KK 15 -superkardioidikapselilla ja MCM 115 -soitinseteillä

Neumann on julkistanut KK 15 -superkardioidikapselin sekä uudet MCM 115 -soitinsetit, jotka laajentavat kiitellyn Miniature Clip Mic System (MCM) -järjestelmän monipuolisuutta entisestään. Vaativiin live-äänentoiston tarpeisiin suunnitellut uutuustuotteet tarjoavat paremman kierronkeston ja entistä tarkemman äänilähteiden erottelun – säilyttäen samalla poikkeuksellisen tasalaatuisen soundin, jonka ansiosta MCM-sarjasta on tullut ammattimuusikoiden ja ääniteknikoiden luottoratkaisu ympäri maailmaa.

The KK 15 introduces a supercardioid pickup pattern to the MCM system, complementing the existing cardioid KK 14 and omnidirectional KK 13 capsules. Thanks to its tight polar pattern, the KK 15 offers superior separation and a more direct sound, making it particularly well suited to louder stages, crowded environments, and situations where maximum gain before feedback is essential.

Built around Neumann’s advanced layered capsule design, the KK 15 overcomes limitations traditionally associated with electret capsules. The result is outstanding clarity, excellent unit-to-unit consistency, and a natural tonal character that integrates seamlessly with existing MCM systems.

“Many live sound applications benefit from increased feedback resistance, but this should never come at the expense of sound quality,” says Jorma Marquardt, Product Manager at Neumann. “Thanks to its exceptionally uniform supercardioid polar pattern, the KK 15 provides a tight focus, while any remaining spill sounds natural without unwanted coloration.”

A New Standard for Close Miking on Loud Stages

The KK 15 supercardioid capsule has the same road-ready construction with titanium housing as the KK 13 omnidirectional and KK 14 cardioid options. All three capsules also share a precise, carefully balanced response typically associated with Neumann microphones. This allows engineers to easily combine different pickup patterns within the same stage setup while maintaining a coherent overall sound.

“Consistency is one of the defining strengths of the MCM system,” says Stephan Mauer, Director of Product Management at Neumann. “Whether you a choose omnidirectional, cardioid, or supercardioid configuration, you can expect a very similar sound signature when switching between or combining different capsules. This flexibility makes MCM an exceptionally powerful and predictable solution for a wide variety of instruments and live production scenarios.”

New MCM 115 Instrument Sets

To simplify deployment for specific instrument applications, Neumann is also introducing a select range of MCM 115 Instrument Sets featuring the new KK 15 capsule. Each set includes all components required for wired operation, including the KK 15 capsule, gooseneck, cable, MCM 100 output stage, dedicated instrument mounting clip, and carrying case.

Five instrument sets are available with the KK 15 supercardioid capsule:

These configurations are optimized for applications that particularly benefit from the tighter supercardioid pickup pattern and higher gain before feedback.

A Truly Modular Clip Mic Platform

With the addition of the KK 15, the MCM system now offers three interchangeable capsule options, allowing users to tailor microphone directivity to virtually any recording or live sound application. The expanded portfolio further strengthens Neumann’s position in professional instrument miking, offering uncompromising sound quality, flexibility, and reliability within a single modular platform.

The MCM system also integrates seamlessly with wireless solutions, including Sennheiser’s Spectera ecosystem via the updated AC 32 3-pin LEMO cables.
