The evolution e 965, Sennheiser’s large-diaphragm condenser microphone, is now available as a wireless version. The MMK 965-1 microphone capsule attaches to both Sennheiser’s 2000 Series and evolution wireless G3 wireless series SKM handheld transmitters, letting users of both series benefit from the dual-diaphragm of Sennheiser’s e 965 microphone. Sennheiser’s ew 500-965 G3 system, which is part of the evolution wireless G3 series, is based around the MMK 965-1 and ships with the EM 500 G3 receiver, a GA 3 rack-mount kit and the SKM 500 G3 transmitter with the MMK 965-1 capsule. The capsule’s dual-diaphragm technology means it can be switched between cardioid and super-cardioid pick-up patterns with the flip of a switch. This lets the capsule adapt to different stage situations quickly and easily. The cardioid pattern provides a natural sound, while the super-cardioid pattern offers rejection of other sounds on stages with high volume levels. As the capsule becomes more directional at higher frequencies, it effectively reduces spillover from instruments, such as a drum kit, and therefore provides generous space for the vocals.
The MMK 965-1 microphone head is included with the evolution wireless ew 500-965 G3 vocal set. It also can be ordered separately for use with any SKM 2000 handheld or evolution wireless G3 handheld SKM transmitter. The microphone capsule is available in traditional black, nickel, and the blue “gunmetal” color of the Sennheiser’s evolution 900 Series.
