Sennheiser MD 46 - Dynamic ENG Microphone

The MD 46 handheld cardioid ENG microphone includes features found in today's interview mics, but with studio quality sound, according to the company. The MD 46 has a traditional long handle, wind attenuation and off-axis rejection and is designed to possess an extended high-frequency response, warm lows, and a clean midrange. The company developed the new microphone in response to the needs of NBC and the 2000 Sydney Olympics.

Omni microphones pick up everything equally, including background noise. The MD 46 cardioid interview mic focuses on the subject, increasing clarity. Designed to have low handling and wind noise, and to eliminate vocal popping, this microphone gives the ENG team an ideal interview tool.

Sennheiser MD-46 Reviews

Awesome

Got this for a project where we had to do run and gun interviews in very loud outdoor situations. I was shocked at how good the voice isolation was. It appears to be an old design and I guess it just hasn't been surpassed by anything better. Really happy with this purchase.

Excellent audio quality, poor handling noise.

I purchased this mic specifically to record video interviews at a large, noisy trade show. It did an excellent job rejected noise. When pointed directly at a speaker, it has a rich sound, though if the mic is not pointed properly, the voice sounds thin. However, every time I toggled the mic from pointing at the guest to pointing to me, the audio popped. Every. Time. There was no handling noise, really, just this annoying pop. With 57 interviews to create in four days, it was impossible to edit these out. I'm returning the mic to B&H. Sigh...

question

Hi, I'm interested in buying one of these for interviews so I'll be using it outdoors mostly. Will I need a windshield and if so, what would be the best one to get?
Asked by: Jordan H.
For outdoor use a windscreen/windshield would be recommended. For very light wind situations a foam windscreen would suffice The Auray WHF-158 is a common choice. B&H # AUWHF158. For medium to high wind scenarios a more robust windshield would be recommended for quality results such as the K-Tek windsock B&H # KTKR5070.
