General DescriptionThe fantastic sound of the MKH 8000 series can now be converted to digital directly at the microphone head, ensuring a natural sound without any loss of quality.The compact digital module is simply screwed onto the microphone head in place of the XLR module, turning the audio signal of the MKH 8020 (omni-directional), MKH 8040 (cardioid) and MKH 8050 (super-cardioid) into a digital one. The new digital module ensures that the warm, natural, yet fantastically clear and powerful sound of the MKH 8000 series is maintained in full quality along the entire signal chain. In contrast to conventional digitization, which uses a separate analogue/digital converter at some stage in the chain, the Sennheiser MZD 8000 digital module eliminates cable losses and, most importantly, features a converter and surrounding circuitry that have been optimally matched to the microphone.Like all signal-carrying components in the 8000 series, the module is designed with two channels and converts the microphone signal according to the AES 42 standard. The microphones can be synchronized by any digital system. In addition to the A/D converter (24-bit, sampling rate up to 192 kHz), the digital module contains a highly integrated DSP unit. With the aid of dedicated PC control software and an AES 42 interface, the microphone allows settings such as the low-cut filter and attenuation to be remote-controlled. The required phantom power for microphones is provided by an AES 42 interface, e.g. Neumann’s DMI.Features2-channel 24 Bit-AD-converter, dynamic range 115 dBStudio grade preamp and converterSampling rate 44,1 kHz, 48kHz, 88,2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176,4kHz and 192 kHzRemote controlled DSP functions like low cut filter and attenuationDigital output in AES 42 formatExternal synchronisation via AES 42, Mode 2Colour: Nextel® black, non reflecting, matching to MKH 8000 seriesDelivery IncludesDigital module MZD 8000User manualTechnical DataFrequency response 10 Hz to 80 kHzAD conversion 24 Bit/ 44,1 to 192 kHz delta-sigmaSensitivity in free field -31 dBFS (incl.
