INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
MKH 800

Brief description
The MKH 800 is a versatile studio condenser microphone with five different
pick-up patterns. It incorporates a push-pull transducer featuring a high linearity.
•
•
Extremely low inherent noise - no masking effects; the recording gets an
extraordinary sense of space and depth
Excellent sensitivity for interference-free sound reproduction and high
signal strength. The inherent noise of following microphone amplifiers is
negligible.
•
•
•
•
The frequency range, which is extended to up to 50 kHz, improves the
resolution for complex acoustic details.
Stable directivity prevents coloration both in the near field and in the
diffuse field.
No negative acoustic effects caused by the housing or the sound inlet
basket.
The mic´s slender design and small dimensions make it visually
unobtrusive.
Connecting facilities/power supply
The MKH 800 is designed for 48 V phantom powering as per DIN 45596.
For power supply units and connecting cables please see "Accessories".
Note well:
The extension cable is to be put between the power supply unit and the
mixing console. The total length of the cable shall not exceed 200 m. For
longer cables the line capacitance affects the frequency response of the
microphone. Trebles are undesirably attenuated.

Stand mounting/acceptance angles
The MZS 80 clamp with shock mount
(included) serves to fix the MKH 800
to a stand.
The proper acceptance angle is
indicated by the red LED.
The MZS 80 shock mount provides
better resistance to footfall.
Application tips
The MKH 800 is a versatile condenser microphone which is particularly well
suited to applications in the studio recording environment.
•
Its problem-free reproduction of high sound pressure levels makes it the
perfect mic for soloist. It also works exceptionally well as a supporting
mic.
•
•
•
•
Its low inherent noise makes the MKH 800 the ideal principal
microphone.
If the microphone is set to the supercardioid pick-up pattern, the monitors
in the studio need not be switched off in order to prevent feedback.
The MZW 80-1 pop shield effectively suppresses pop noise during close
miking. A special gauze pop shield is in preparation.
The extended frequency response is in particular suitable for recordings
with a sampling rate of 96 kHz.

Selection of pick-up patterns
Switch C serves to set the mic to five
different pick-up patterns:
Omnidirectional
The push-pull transducer incorporated
into the MKH 800 reduces the mic´s
directivity to a minimum for high
frequencies. The mic has a neutral
response to direct and diffuse signals.
This feature provides a sense of space
and depth and allows large sound
sources to be miked. For close-miking,
sound reproduction does not become
overbrilliant or shrill. No proximity
effect.
C
Wide-angle cardioid
The wide-angle cardioid pick-up
pattern is a combination of the
omnidirectional and the cardioid pick-
up pattern. A rear attenuation of 10 dB
allows a moderate attenuation of
diffuse signals from the rear and thus a
good reverberation balance for longer
distances to the sound source, even in
rooms which are acoustically less
perfect. Like the omnidirectional pick-
up pattern, the wide-angle cardioid
pick-up pattern is particularly well
suited to mike large sound sources.
For close-miking, the mic´s bass
emphasis is less high than with the
cardioid pick-up pattern.

Cardioid
The cardioid pick-up pattern is acoustically neutral for large acceptance
angles. Typical for the push-pull transducer is its high rear attenuation for low
frequencies (typ. 30 dB), which allows signals from the rear to be effectively
attenuated. The cardioid pick-up pattern is the most versatile characteristic. It
is the ideal choice for speakers, soloists and smaller instrument groups.
Supercardioid
The supercardiod pick-up pattern features a higher directivity than the
cardioid pick-up pattern, which results in efficient attenuation of diffuse signals
and prevents feedback. Thanks to its good lateral attenuation (10 dB), the
supercardioid pick-up pattern is particularly well suited to mike or support
soloists in noisy environments, i.e. situations in which lateral sound is to be
effectively suppressed. In this case, too, the transducer provides a frequency-
independent directivity.
Figure-of-eight
The figure-of-eight pick-up pattern provides total attenuation of lateral sound,
which makes it particularly well suited to separate or support adjacent sound
sources such as single instruments or instrument groups in large orchestras.
Annoying reflections from the floor and the resulting comb filter effects can be
effectively reduced.

Preattenuation / tone control
Switch L for preattenuation
If the output level of the MKH 800 is
too high for the following mixing
console, it can be reduced in two steps:
- 6 dB
or
- 12 dB
Switch H for treble emphasis
The treble emphasis can be adjusted in
two steps. For 8 kHz the increase
amounts to:
L
H
B
+ 3 dB
or
+ 6 dB
Switch B for bass attenuation
The bass response can be attenuated
in two steps. For 50 Hz the attenua-
tion amounts to:
- 3 dB
or
- 6 dB
