Schoeps CMIT Double M/S Piano Set

It includes a CMIT 5U shotgun microphone, a CCM 4Lg cardioid mic, a CCM 8Lg figure-8 microphone, a basket-type windscreen set, fur cover, mic clip, and necessary cables.

The microphones boast wide frequency responses, excellent off-axis rejection, and compact bodies. The included PIA-3S windscreen set features elastic suspension to cradle the microphones and eliminate handling noise. Install the supplied cloth cover or long-pile fur cover over the protective cage for enhanced immunity to wind noise without compromising acoustical transparency.

The PIA-3S has a one-axis swivel adapter with 3/8" threading, allowing easy mounting on a boompole. An integrated cable system provides one XLR 3-pin and two LEMO plugs merged to an XLR 7-pin output. External connectivity is simplified via the supplied XLR 7-pin extension and breakout cable, which converts an XLR 7-pin to three XLR 3-pin connectors.
