Neumann KMR 82 I MT
The Neumann KMR 82 I MT is a premium long shotgun condenser microphone designed for professional film, television, and broadcast production. Known for its exceptional directivity, natural tonal balance, and low self-noise, it captures dialogue and sound effects with unmatched clarity — even at long distances. The KMR 82 I MT delivers Neumann’s legendary sound quality in an ultra-directional format, making it a top choice for boom operation, outdoor recording, and other demanding location setups.
Featuring a carefully tuned interference tube design, the KMR 82 I MT achieves excellent off-axis rejection while maintaining a transparent, natural sound. Its transformerless output circuitry ensures low distortion, wide dynamic range, and superior signal integrity. The matte black (MT) finish provides a discreet, non-reflective appearance ideal for professional camera and stage use. Built in Germany, the KMR 82 I MT combines robust construction with the sonic precision required by the most demanding engineers and production environments.
