Each setting works like an independent microphone capsule with the same quality as the MK 2S and MK 4, and with very similar frequency and polar response characteristics. The MK 5 is a true one-diaphragm system: a pure pressure transducer in the omni setting and a pressure-gradient transducer in the cardioid setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eIn the cardioid setting the MK 5 keeps its directivity even at the lowest frequencies and has high-frequency response up to 20 kHz. In the omni setting it has excellent low-frequency response together with the low sensitivity to wind, vocal popping and solid-borne sound typical of pressure transducers. The capsule screws onto a Colette microphone amplifier such as the CMC 6, CMC 1 U or CMC 1 L.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse:collapse;margin:6px 0 18px;width:100%;max-width:100%;table-layout:fixed;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 8px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #DDE2E8;vertical-align:top;word-break:normal;overflow-wrap:break-word;width:55%;color:#5a6170;font-size:13px;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.05em;\"\u003eMechanically switchable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 8px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #DDE2E8;vertical-align:top;word-break:normal;overflow-wrap:break-word;font-weight:bold;color:#006d77;font-size:17px;\"\u003eOmni \/ cardioid\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 8px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #DDE2E8;vertical-align:top;word-break:normal;overflow-wrap:break-word;width:55%;color:#5a6170;font-size:13px;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.05em;\"\u003eEquivalent noise, omni (A-weighted)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 8px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #DDE2E8;vertical-align:top;word-break:normal;overflow-wrap:break-word;font-weight:bold;color:#006d77;font-size:17px;\"\u003e12 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 8px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #DDE2E8;vertical-align:top;word-break:normal;overflow-wrap:break-word;width:55%;color:#5a6170;font-size:13px;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.05em;\"\u003eLower limit, omni setting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 8px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #DDE2E8;vertical-align:top;word-break:normal;overflow-wrap:break-word;font-weight:bold;color:#006d77;font-size:17px;\"\u003e20 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 8px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #DDE2E8;vertical-align:top;word-break:normal;overflow-wrap:break-word;width:55%;color:#5a6170;font-size:13px;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.05em;\"\u003eMax.
