Headset Microphones

Im Jahr 2009 revolutionierte Audeze die Kopfhörerindustrie mit der Einführung des LCD-2, dem ersten planaren Magnetkopfhörer des Unternehmens. Mit seinem klaren, natürlichen und räumlichen Klang, der zum Markenzeichen von Audeze geworden ist, setzte der LCD-2 schnell neue Maßstäbe für Referenzklang. Im Laufe der Jahre hat Audeze den LCD-2 weiterentwickelt und verbessert, um die bisher beste Version anzubieten – eine Kombination aus zeitloser Handwerkskunst, modernem Komfort und klanglicher Exzellenz.

fully integrated: microphone, gooseneck and headphones form a unit highest intelligibility special cardioid microphone with steep bass rolloff (4VXP or 4VP) effective suppression of noise from surroundings excellent protection from vocal “popping” sounds The earpiece on the opposite side can be folded out of the way of the ear. The HSC 4VP is a completely integrated headset. A compact microphone CCM 4VXP or 4VP (cardioids designed for close pickup of speech) is permanently connected with the Ultrasone HFI 780 headphone via a gooseneck element. A single cable connects to the headset. It is then split to a microphone output (XLR-3M) and the headphone input (1/4" stereo phone plug). The headset comes with the popp screen B 5. For even greater protection against wind and popping noise, the popscreen B 5 D can be used instead. The microphone CCM 4VXP offers a steep bass rolloff and a mild high-frequency boost. It is designed for lateral sound pickup at the shortest possible distance, i.e. directly in front of the speaker’s mouth. Proximity effect compensates for its low-frequency rolloff such that the microphone has an even frequency response for the person speaking, while background noise encounters the full response rolloff and is greatly reduced. The HSC was developed in cooperation with professionals who expect the highest sound quality and intelligibility. In place of the cardioid microphones, an omnidirectional microphone such as the CCM 2S can be used; the result would have a very natural sound color and no proximity effect. However, the sensitivity to off-axis noise would then be higher.

Audio specialist Sennheiser will be presenting its first single-sided, earworn microphones at prolight+sound. There are two hands-free models for stage shows and the broadcasting studio: the EarSet 4 with a cardioid pick-up pattern and the EarSet 1 with an omnidirectional response. The sound of the EarSets also captivated P!NK - the exceptional artist was using an initial model of the EarSet 4 on her Funhouse tour.  P!NK already used the EarSet 4 on her Funhouse tour (Photo credit: Luke Green)    "Both EarSets use capsules which are much loved in the live production and broadcasting fields", says Sebastian Schmitz, Microphones Product Manager, "in other words, the omni-directional capsule of our smallest clip-on microphone, the MKE 1, for the EarSet 1 and the cardioid capsule of the HSP 4 headset microphone for the EarSet 4." Together with a robust and close-fitting mechanical design, these are two microphones which, due to high-quality capsules and perfect distance from the mouth, ensure first-class sound in energetic stage shows and also cut a dash as a presenter's microphone.   Whilst the EarSet 1 is particularly insensitive to pop and wind noise and therefore easy to handle, the EarSet 4 is an ideal choice for loud stage environments where it effectively suppresses ambient noise and offers excellent feedback rejection. Both microphones are very light, comfortable to wear due to silicone tubing, and very resistant to perspiration and moisture. The earclip and boom microphone can be easily adjusted to fit ear and head shape. The cable, which has low sensitivity to structure-borne sound, is very robust and has a diameter of only 1 mm.    P!NKIt should only have been a field test, but P!NK was so enamoured of a prototype of the EarSet 4 during tests for her Funhouse tour that she didn't want to give it back. Monitor engineer Horst Hartmann: "The EarSet is the first small microphone that is just as loud under live conditions and sounds just as good as a handheld microphone. Nothing like this was available before. Compromises always had to be made, either in terms of the comfort of the artist when wearing it or as far as the sound was concerned, because the lack of volume necessitated harsh equalisation, and the sound always suffered as a result."  In P!NK's songs on the trapeze, the EarSet underwent its baptism of fire. "In the air, right in front of the speakers - you wouldn't even want to go there with a handheld microphone! With the EarSet, we had no problems with feedback and the sound was excellent."    For use in acrobatic displays of this kind, a skin-friendly adhesive tape, which can be covered by make-up, is supplied with the EarSet for providing additional fixing for the mic boom. Also included are a cable clip for strain relief, a foam windshield for the EarSet 4 and caps for altering the frequency response with the EarSet 1.     The new EarSets can be used with all Sennheiser wireless systems; there are LEMO connectors for the Sennheiser 2000, 3000 and 5000 professional series or a 3.5 mm jack for pocket transmitters in the evolution wireless series.
