Oktava MK-104 BK Studie kondensator mikrofon

The MK-104 is the newest addition to the Oktava line. It features a completely new 27 mm large diaphragm capsule installed in a new acoustically optimized headbasket.
The new capsule is the result of ongoing research and showcases a new arrangement and sizing of precision-drilled backplate holes for optimum time and frequency domain performance. This stunning new capsule is bright, clear and accurate without being screechy, sizzly, spitty or scooped.
The MK-104 offers a groundbreaking headbasket design. It features four acoustically optimized vents that dramatically reduce reflections within the headbasket to smooth the upper midrange response and improve transient response detail. The MK-104 is capable of rendering high frequency transients sounds with accuracy and detail reminiscent of a small diaphragm mic – but offers the flattering qualities of a large diaphragm condenser.
The MK-104 uses the same circuit found in the renowned MK-012 (over 90,000 in use worldwide) to deliver the alluring sound of direct phantom power applied to a large diaphragm capsule.
On-axis - the MK-104 exhibits a smooth and gentle upward tilt from bass to treble giving it several dB more treble output relative to the bass end. Off-axis - The MK-104 has a unique and useful polar response - 180 degree output above 7 kHz exceeds 90 output. This means the MK-104 hears ambient room presence and “air” while rejecting HF bleed from adjacent sound sources. The MK-104 excels where the recordist wants an accurate on-axis large diaphragm cardioid sound, excellent transient response and bright room ambience while minimizing HF leakage from adjacent instruments.
