Authors: Shulman, Yuri

AES Convention 81 · Paper 2405 · November 1986

Abstract

Research into the acoustical properties of highly directional (shotgun) microphones used in motion picture, theater, and TV studio applications are described. Particular attention is given to the off-axis frequency response performance. This research has resulted in the design of a new high-quality shotgun microphone wit significantly reduced off-axis comb-filter effects.
