Sooner or later you’re bound to run into a situation where your short shotgun mic just isn’t going to cut it. You simply need more reach, more presence and more directionality than what the physics of a compact shotgun mic will allow. Enter the MKE 600, a workhorse of a mic that’s equally at home when mounted to the top of a camera or at the end of a boom pole. The MKE 600 is your go anywhere, do anything shotgun mic that's built to withstand the test of time and can be used with pretty much any video recording device you plug it into. At this price-point, it’s hard to justify anything else.

@Kmass 2 года назад

May I ask what reason ypu had 2 shotgun mics on your boom pole during this video?

@robb.blumenreder 2 года назад

Hi KMass - the second shotgun is simply for redundancy purposes. One of the advantages of the MKE 600 is that you can use it with either phantom power or battery power (1 x AA battery), so we could have one running to our Sound Devices MixPre6 via XLR and one feeding a camera with the included XLR to 3.5 mm TRS adapter. Nice to have the option and a little back-up is always nice for peace of mind.

Why does the power light not stay on when the mic is powered??

@Boz1211111 3 месяца назад

so it doesnt use power for light

@robb.blumenreder 2 месяца назад

Hi @JensEser - the LED can provide various info depending on how the microphone is being powered. If you're using Phantom Power, the LED will be green and the Battery On/Off switch has no functionality; if you're using battery power and switch the postion to "On", the LED will light up red for ~1s and then go off indicating up to 150h of operation, if the LED lights up red and stays lit, you have a low battery warning with 8h or less of remaining operating time, if the LED flashes red briefly and goes off, your battery is empty. For more info, please check out the manual, linked here: www.sennheiser.com/globalassets/digizuite/41097-en-mke600_manual_09_2022_en.pdf

@robb.blumenreder 7 месяцев назад

Hi Daniela - the Zoom F3 has (2) XLR inputs, so you just need to purchase a standard XLR audio cable from wherever you're buying the F3 - one end will plug into the MKE 600 and the other into the recorder. They come in various lengths, so be certain to get one that fits your application best.

Does the MKE 600 mic have an auto on/off switch like the MKE 400 Mk2 that when connected to a dslr switches on the mic when recording starts?

@robb.blumenreder 2 года назад

While the MKE 600 doesn’t have an auto on/off feature, a single AA battery will typically get you 150 hours of use… and if you’re using it with a recorder, it can also be powered by phantom power.

For this particular set-up, I believe we were running two microphones for comparison purposes and back-up/redundancy; one went to the field recorder and one went directly to the A-Cam input.

Hello, how i connect it to iphone 15 pro, usb c

@robb.blumenreder 7 месяцев назад

Hi A7 - Sennheiser offers an adapter cable named the KA 600i (shown at 0:58) on the left in this video. This is a TRRS style adapter that enables you to connect to a headphone adapter like the Apple USB-C to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (~$9 USD). If you're not mounting the mic on top of the phone with a clamp or cage, I'd recommend picking up a standard XLR cable to keep the shotgun mic as close to your subject as possible; attach the XLR cable to the MKE 600 and then to the KA 600i adapter to go into the Apple USB-C 3.5mm jack adapter and you're good to go. I'd also suggest using some velcro as a strain relief so the cable isn't pulling down on the iPhone USB-C port since the cables have some weight to them... also, if you haven't checked out the Blackmagic Cam app, it's highly recommended for iOS!

Quality of sound with phantom and internal battery? 132dB vs 126dB, did you notice any difference that is significant?

@marcelbarlaw4865 2 года назад

up for this question - did you find out already? thanks

@antdx316 2 года назад

@@marcelbarlaw4865 didn't notice a difference too much as I was using the Zoom F2-BT 32-bit Float recorder on battery and the AE-9 32-bit at 96KHz on Phantom 48+. I just normalized the volume in Adobe Audition and it's good. Trying to make it sound "better" with tuning/equalizing/dessing/etc. makes it better for what you are hearing with but could be A lot worse in other things like speakers vs earbuds. Leaving everything the same made it sound really clear on an external speaker. I think all the dialog videos on RU-vid are "scams" to get views but they can work great if you have totally a crappy sound recording setup and need to fix things to even it out.

@HopeProphecy 2 года назад

Thanks for the info! Would I see a noticeable decrease in quality if I plugged the MKE 600 directly into my Fuji XT3 using the 3.5mm adaptor (versus XLR a XLR recorder)? I film indoors, in a treated room, and am planning to place it on a boom pole above my head, just out of frame. (I prefer to avoid syncing my video/audio in post). Thank you.

@robb.blumenreder 2 года назад

The audio components on most cameras are a compromise based on their need to integrate into the camera body. The preamps are generally lower quality and noisy when compared to a dedicated audio recorder - you would absolutely notice a difference if you were to A:B the audio. Since most devices also have an audio output, your best bet is to use an external recorder for the MKE 600 and connect the output of the recorder to the camera. This makes syncing in post much easier since you’ll have a reference on the camera that matches the recorder.
