Schoeps WSR DMS CMIT LU Sale "Factory renewed": Basket-type Windscreen with Windjammer for Double M/S with CMIT 5, XLR7

”Double M/S” is an improved version of the well-known M/S stereo recording technique. In addition to a front-facing ”mid” microphone (here this is a shotgun microphone) and a figure-8 ”side” microphone, a rear-facing directional microphone is set up. The front- and rear-facing microphones share the signal of the figure-8 microphone so as to form two complete, back-to-back M/S systems. One M/S system then provides the three front channels (the center channel signal being provided directly by the mid microphone of the front system), while the other system provides the two surround channels. An arrangement of this kind allows flexible processing of the stereo surround image width and post-production adjustment for both of the M/S pairs.

Double M/S principle, with CMIT shotgun microphone used as the front-facing M microphone

Application

The "DMS Splitter" signal splitter box can also be used for double M/S with the CMIT 5 U, to power the microphones correctly and to obtain the M/S signals for front and back.

As with the other surround sets, the following should be noted:
If the microphone signals are to be recorded directly and processed only later, an optional XLR-7 to 3 × XLR-3 adapter cable (model AK DMS/3U) can be used in place of the splitter box.
Similarly, the AK 3U DMS adapter cable (3 x XLR-3F to XLR-7M) is available so that the splitter box can be positioned at the far end of a single multi-core extension cable.
