Finally, the ultimate boom microphone set for film and TV sound recordists.
The SCHOEPS Desert Island Boom Set brings together the three essentials every production sound mixer needs on set, packed securely in a single Peli Case. Designed as the ultimate boom microphone toolkit, this premium microphone set includes the CMC 1 U microphone amplifier, the MK 41 supercardioid capsule, and the KMIT shotgun capsule, delivering uncompromising performance for both indoor and outdoor dialogue recording.
Built around the way boom operators actually work, the SCHOEPS Desert Island Boom Set gives you the right microphone for every environment. Indoors, the MK 41 capsule provides the controlled pickup pattern and exceptionally natural sound character that professional dialogue recording demands. Its polar pattern remains highly consistent across the frequency spectrum, strongly attenuating side and rear sound while avoiding unwanted coloration.
Outdoors, the KMIT mic capsule offers the additional boom mic directivity needed for location recording. Derived directly from the renowned CMIT series, it delivers the same outstanding acoustical qualities: high directivity with remarkably low coloration of off-axis sound. Switching between capsules takes only seconds, making this boom microphone set fast, practical, and reliable in demanding production environments.
At the heart of the set is the compact CMC 1 U microphone amplifier. This Colette-series amplifier matches or exceeds the electrical performance of the CMC 6 while being only one-third of its length. This makes it ideal for modern boom microphone setups where size and weight matter.
As part of the Colette series, the SCHOEPS Desert Island Boom is also built for long-term flexibility. The CMC 1 U accepts any MK capsule, allowing users to expand their microphone collection without replacing the amplifier.
Finished in the CMIT’s signature blue, all components are housed in a robust Peli Case for protection on the move. The SCHOEPS Desert Island Boom Set joins the Desert Island Stereo Set as part of the premium Desert Island family, an essential investment for professionals who demand the very best from their boom microphone set.
