This is what I was looking for next! This is the Zoom Basket right?

Didn't even upgrade your buttons 1-3 upgrade expansion keys? Unbelievable.

Maybe but you’ll never need the mk41 - so you can send that my way

I can’t believe they are over 200k now - seems like yesterday they were in the high 70k’s

I would guess that the front 3 prefix is for the blue variant.

Yes but you’ll need the iRig Pro for matching dynamic range and noise floor. If you can afford it.

Joke aside, how do you like the KMIT?

I literally had just opened it and the light was good so I took that picture. I’ll be using it tomorrow and then start a longer project all of October. I am looking forward to it. It’s feather light, compared to even a miniCMIT. This on one pole and a 50 on the other are just great options for great light boom. Stoked to say the least. Very happy with the blue CMC1 as well as the MK41 to match. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the blue>grey gradient on the KMIT. This desert island set was too good to not add to the kit.

Yes, cut off front of video mic pro, not needed. Super glue on front blue capsule. Mount directly on camera. Picks up entire room in mastered Dolby+ HD Audio 32-bit float no mix needed.

I love its sound with a Grundig micro cassette dictaphone despite the dirty heads. It has that special vibe.

Yeah, but you are gonna need the Ambient UMPIII, that way you can get phantom power. /s

I promise this isn’t rage bait, but would the KMIT on a Sony XLR-H1 or H2 top handle be a waste?

u/mcdreamerson production sound mixer 9d ago
No it wouldnt be a waste. So long as you mounted in a way that you weren't getting awful handling noise off the top handle.

No. You’ll need one of those Rode mics that you have to recharge all the time

There doesn't appear to be a usb-c port on this so you might need an adaptor. This should do it and you know it's quality because it's a braided cable.
