The MSXY-8 is a variable pattern condenser microphone with two independent large dual diaphragm condenser capsules and FET amplifiers. Polar pattern control is located on the power supply unit and is variable from cardioid to omnidirectional and bidirectional with in-between positions. One of the two capsules can be rotated by 180º resulting in great flexibility for both mono and stereo pickup applications. The rectangular capsules are the same used in the CD-63. Includes 5815 power supply with two separate audio outputs, one for each capsule and amplifier, stand adapter and shock-proof mount.
