Wide Cardioids
 Microphone Capsule MK 21
Compact Microphone CCM 21
- wide cardioid pattern very well maintained throughout
the frequency range
- pleasant sound image, often described
as “warm”
This type of capsule has a directional pattern between omni
and cardioid.
The basic idea in designing this capsule was to combine the
advantages of the cardioid with those of the omni. This results
in a pickup pattern which blends the two sets of characteristics
in a useful manner. It has fuller and more extended low-frequency
response than a cardioid, with less proximity effect, while
attenuating side- and rear-incident sound less than a cardioid.

This microphone type is an outgrowth of our field experience
with the MK 21. It embodies suggestions made by various pop
musicians who wished certain instruments (such as percussion,
acoustic guitar and vocals) to be reproduced with a touch of
additional brightness, while maintaining the essential uniformity
of response to sound originating anywhere in the microphone's
front hemisphere.
Surface finish : matte gray (g) or nickel (ni)

Although our normal production tolerances are very close, we
