The MKE 1 microphone
The MKE 1 is a high-quality, sub-miniature, sweat-
resistant clip-on condenser microphone. It features
excellent sound quality and rugged design. The
frequency response curve has been optimized for
stage, studio and reporting applications (ENG). The
MKE 1 is fitted with a very thin (only 1 mm) yet
extremely rugged cable, making this microphone
an ideal partner for all live sound applications.
Features
•Sub-miniature microphone
•High maximum sound pressure level
•Wide frequency response with adaptable treble
response
•Thin (only 1 mm), flexible and rugged cable, low
in handling noise
•Very insensitive to the penetration of sweat due
to a special protective “umbrella” diaphragm
Delivery includes
1 MKE 1 microphone
1 MZC 1-1 frequency response cap, small
1 MZC 1-2 frequency response cap, large
3 make-up protectors

Treble boost
Your microphone is supplied
with two different frequency
response caps. These caps
allow you to adjust the treble
response of the microphone
(see page 6).
In addition, the large frequency
response cap attenuates wind noise by approx.
15 dB and provides an extended protection against
the ingress of moisture.
왘Slip the cap of your choice onto the microphone
until it locks into place.
Make-up protection
왘When putting on make-up or hair spray, protect
the MKE 1 by slipping the make-up protector
onto the microphone (with or without fre-
quency response cap, see diagram).
왘Only remove the make-up protector after make-
up has been completed.

Attachment of the microphone
Depending on the area of application, you can
attach the MKE 1 in different ways to either
clothing or the body.
To do so, use the optional MZ 1 accessory kit (see
page 7) that offers multiple and secure attach-
ment possibilities.
The clips, holders and mounts are suitable for
almost any wearing situation and ensure optimum
sound quality.
