Sennheiser AVX-MKE2 Set

Unbox, charge, and start recording – it's that easy. The lavalier microphone included here is an excellent choice for interviews in documentaries, corporate videos, or on-the-go productions. Thanks to a subtle high-frequency boost, the MKE2 captures speech with remarkable clarity, while the fur windscreen minimises wind noise for cleaner outdoor recordings. Its omnidirectional polar pattern also makes it ideal for capturing ambient sound when needed. The microphone connects to the bodypack transmitter via a secure screw-lock 3.5mm jack, ensuring a stable connection during use. Both the transmitter and receiver are pre-paired and configure themselves automatically, eliminating the need for manual setup. Automatic frequency management finds open channels in real time, while onboard interference management automatically switches frequencies if disruptions occur, ensuring uninterrupted performance. This fully digital system operates in the license-free 1.9GHz band; with its wide 20Hz to 20kHz frequency range and an impressive 120dB(A) of dynamic range, it guarantees professional, broadcast-ready sound on every shoot.

In June 1945, Prof. Fritz Sennheiser founded the Wennebostel Laboratory, which initially produced measuring equipment. Commissioned by Siemens in 1945, the young company developed the MD-1 microphone, which was launched in 1946. After the development of further microphones, the company was renamed Sennheiser Electronic in 1958. Two years later, Sennheiser introduced the MD 421 dynamic microphone, which is still in production today and still held in high esteem by many sound engineers. Further groundbreaking developments, such as the HD 414 headphones and the classic MD 441 microphone, hugely enhanced the company's international reputation, eventually making Sennheiser one of the leading manufacturers of microphone and headphone systems in the world.
