SENNHEISER MICROPHONES - Handheld

A range of Sennheiser interview and vocal microphones designed for handheld use.

MD series

MD 435 Dynamic, cardioid, live vocal

Sennheiser describe the MD 435 capsule to have 'nuanced resolution and transparency'. It has a large diaphragm diameter and a frequency response of 40-20,000Hz. With a maximum SPL of 163dB and dynamic range of 146dB(A), MD 435 is designed for live vocals in high volume conditions. The capsule is spring-mounted and surrounded by a metal basket, which in turn forms part of the 'rugged' metal design.

Applications: Live vocal. Frequency response: 40-20000Hz. Dimensions: 181 x 47.5 (length x maximum diameter) mm. Weight: 350g

MD 445 Dynamic, super-cardioid, live vocal

This microphone head has very similar attributes as the MD 435 however the pickup pattern is super-cardioid and is therefore more resistant to background noise and feedback. SPL is 163dB and dynamic range is 145dB(A).

Applications: Live vocal. Frequency response: 40-20000Hz. Dimensions: 174 x 47.5 (length x maximum diameter) mm. Weight: 329g

MD42 - Dynamic, omnidirectional, interview

Designed and constructed for use in demanding field applications, providing protection from wind and handling noise in live reporting and broadcasting environments, the MD 42 has a two-ply sound-inlet basket to provide increased protection from wind and pop noise. The capsule is shock mounted within the extra-long metal housing to ensure low sensitivity to handling noise and the omni-directional pick-up pattern ensures excellent speech intelligibility even when the microphone is not pointed directly towards the speaker. Supplied without cable or stand clamp. MD42 has a low output impedance and a 3-pole XLR connector.

Applications: Handheld interview. Frequency response: 40-18000Hz. Dimensions: 250 x 49 (length x maximum diameter) mm. Weight: 360g.

MD46 - Dynamic, cardioid, interview

Similar to the MD42, but with a directional pick-up pattern, the MD6 is more appropriate for locations with a high degree of background noise. Supplied without cable or stand clamp.

Applications: Handheld interview. Frequency response: 40-18000Hz. Dimensions: 250 x 49 (length x maximum diameter) mm. Weight: 360g.

Evolution 800 series

e835, e835S - Dynamic, cardioid, live vocal

With uniform frequency pick-up pattern to maintain signal quality when moving on and off axis during performance, these models have a gentle presence boost to ensure clarity and projection. Minimal proximity effect provides clear bass end performance regardless of distance from mouth to microphone. e835S has noiseless reed on/off switch.

Applications: Lead vocals. Frequency response: 40-16000Hz. Sensitivity: 2.7mV/Pa, 1kHz. Dimensions: 180 x 48mm (length x maximum diameter). Weight: 330g.

e845, e845S - Dynamic, super-cardioid, live vocal

These performance vocal microphones have 'extended high frequency response, full dynamic range and smooth warm tonal response. A presence gives vocal clarity and projection. They have 'consistent on/off axis and proximity response'. e845S has a noiseless reed on/off switch.

Applications: Stage vocals. Frequency response: 40-16000Hz. Sensitivity: 1.8mV/Pa, 1kHz. Dimensions: 185 x 46mm (length x maximum diameter). Weight: 330g.

e865, e865S - Condenser, super-cardioid, live vocal

These electret condenser microphones have a super-cardioid pick-up pattern and are designed to give vocals a 'natural, detailed sound', and be 'sensitive to the slightest nuances'. With a 'rugged' metal casing, the e865 has a high level of handling noise rejection, often required in live applications. The e865S has a silent on/off switch.

Applications: Lead vocals. Frequency response: 40-20000Hz. Sensitivity: 3mV/Pa, 1kHz. Dimensions: 193 x 47mm (length x maximum diameter). Weight: 311g.

Evolution 900 series

e935 - Dynamic, cardioid, live vocal

Sennheiser have designed this dynamic microphone for live vocal use. With a 'tough' metal case, 'low handling noise', and internally shock-mounted capsule, the e935 is a popular choice for vocalists of varying genres. The cardioid pick-up pattern ensures the microphone picks up less ambient noise on stage, which works well when using on-stage monitoring to reduce feedback.

Applications: Lead vocals. Frequency response: 40-18000Hz. Sensitivity: 2.8mV/Pa, 1kHz. Dimensions: 151 x 47mm (length x maximum diameter). Weight: 355g.

e945 - Dynamic, super-cardioid, live vocal

This super-cardioid, dynamic microphone has been designed for live vocals whereby a narrower pick-up pattern is advantageous - particularly when on stage monitoring is used. A shock-mounted capsule and a hum-compensating coil ensure the e945 eliminates a higher amount of unwanted interference and handling noise.

Applications: Lead vocals. Frequency response: 40-18000Hz. Sensitivity: 2mV/Pa, 1kHz. Dimensions: 186 x 47mm (length x maximum diameter). Weight: 365g.

e965 - Condenser, cardioid/super-cardioid, live vocal

e965 has been designed by Sennheiser to give the 'advantages of high-end studio' microphones within a live microphone in a 'rugged' metal casing. The externally polarised large-diaphragm condenser capsule has a pick-up pattern which may be switched between cardioid to super-cardioid to ensure the best response for the current application. An on/off low cut switch and sensitivity switch, which selects the sensitivity to either 0dB or -10dB, are both located below the capsule beneath the protective basket. +48V phantom power is required to correctly power this microphone.

Applications: Lead vocals. Frequency response: 40-20000Hz. Sensitivity: 7mV/Pa, 1kHz. Dimensions: 199 x 48mm (length x maximum diameter). Weight: 396g.
