How A Shotgun Mic Works
Charlie Miller:
I was doing some research on Schoeps shotguns and came across this page. It has some interesting info that some may find useful. Scroll down and check out the pics in the comments section.

I've never seen an AKG C747 Shotgun mic before. Anyone ever seen one?

That's pretty interesting. Thanks!

Those c747's look pretty interesting. I just started messing with the ck-8's and have been enjoying the results with shotguns (short in this case) more than I expected. More lows than I had initially imagined I'd get out of them.

Just picked up a pair of 460/ck8 short shots and had the same findings as you.

we have had the ck8's for years and would agree. I think probably one of the best shotguns you can have in your kit.
we run them with the knuckles on the bodies generally which helps keep the foot print a little smaller.
