KM 100
Application Hints
For recording situations where the microphone
must remain “invisible”.
KM 120
•MS-Stereo microphone (in combination with
the KM140)
•Two crossed AK20s in Blumlein technique
•Inconspicuous spot microphone with optimum
attenuation of lateral sound sources
•Single microphone for two speakers
facing each other
KM 130
•Ideal as AB stereo pair in the diffuse sound field
because of the flat frequency response
•As a main mic, especially for capturing room
acoustics
•For stereo recordings with a baffle plate
•As a spot mic for piano, wind instruments,
organ, and choir
KM 131
•For close miking of instruments when there
is no need to attenuate extraneous noise,
and in a balanced acoustic environment to
record acoustic guitar, wind instruments,
strings, percussion, and drums
•Flat frequency response for close miking, spot mic
KM 140
•Universal usage, especially in situations
when it is necessary to attenuate sound
coming from adjacent instruments
•As XY and ORTF stereo pair
•Announcer’s mic for broadcasting
•Spot mic, overhead
•Close miking of strings, wind instruments,
percussion, piano, Leslie speakers,
guitar amps
•We recommend using an additional
windscreen to minimize the effects
of high wind velocity
KM 143
•Polar response characteristic acts more
like an omni. Therefore, it is an ideal tool
to record larger instrument ensembles
•As AB stereo pair, especially in rooms
with less than ideal acoustics
•As spot mic for strings, wind instruments,
percussion, and Leslie speakers
•Acts very neutral when used close up
to bass instruments, such as
double bass, bass amps, guitar amps
KM 145
•It naturally compensates for proximity effect
•Very neutral tonal balance during close
miking of speech, as in TV, movie and video ,
PA
•Acts very neutral when used close up to bass
instruments, such as double bass, bass amps,
guitar amps, Leslie speakers, toms
KM 150
•As XY stereo pair
•Overhead, toms
•In situations that are susceptible to acoustic
feedback
•To attenuate unwanted sound of nearby
instruments
•Recording of speech, as in TV, movie and video
productions, PA systems
•Produces especially warm and bass supporting
sound for artists who perform in proximity
effect range
•We recommend using an additional wind-
screen to minimize the effects of high wind
velocity, and plosive sounds
These are just some of the most common
applications. Detailed hints are described in the
catalog “KM100 Application Guide”.
