Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. does anyone use a blimp here? What brand do you recommend? if not, which dead cat/wind screen do you use?

A: I don't use a blimp on the MKE 600, but I due use a Rycote Softie (B&H # RYS15M) that fits perfectly and works okay. I wouldn't rely on the Rycote Softie on a day with wind gusts, but an average windy day is just fine. I use a blimp for our 416 and the difference is definitely demonstrable. In a situation where a blimp is needed, we'd use the MKH 416 anyway.

Q: 2. Anyone know what shockmount that is? I just want to buy the shockmount

A: That is the Auray DUSM-1 https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/885660-REG/auray_dusm_1_universal_shock_mount.html

Q: 3. I've had this mic for a few years. Suddenly, it's very hard to screw open the mic to replace the battery. Any suggestions?

A: If the screw is stripped, then you may want to replace it to avoid a continuing problem. If it is not stripped but just hard to remove, you can try coating the thread of the screw with a little bit of bar soap or wax to make it easier to turn and prevent the thread from sticking. Be careful and don't use too much because you don't want to create a mess or damage the electronics.

Q: 4. Does this mic and an XLR to 3.5mm stereo plug record in stereo on the camera, or do you need to convert to dual mono in post production?

A: If you use the recommended Sennheiser cable KA600 the microphone signal will be recorded on both channels of the camcorder.

Q: 5. Would this work with the Sennheiser MKH-416?

A: The Sennheiser MZS 600 Shockmount is designed specifically for use with the MKE 600 Shotgun Microphone. The MKE 600 has a diameter of 20mm and the Sennheiser MKH 416 has a diameter of 19mm. You may be able to use it, possibly with a rubber O-ring, if needed to tighten the fit.

Q: 6. What size is the thread on this attachment?
