MKE platinum-C
The MKE platinum-C is a high-quality, sub-miniature, sweatresistant clip-on condenser microphone designed for all areas of
live work. It features excellent sound quality and rugged design.
The MKE platinum-C is fitted with a very thin (only 1 mm) yet
rugged cable, making this microphone an ideal partner for all live
sound applications.
Characteristics
y
Sub-miniature microphone ideal for unobtrusive attachment to
clothing or directly to the head or body.
y High maximum sound pressure level.
y Wide frequency response with treble response adapted to the
requirements of live stage work
y Thin (only 1 mm), flexible and rugged cable, low in handling
noise.
y Largely insensitive to penetration of sweat due to the patented
Umbrella Diaphragm™. This design comprises two individual diaphragms installed on both sides of the diaphragm ring.

The bottom diaphragm is electrically active and forms the capacitive electroacoustic transducer together with the back plate.
The top diaphragm is passive and seals the microphone against
sweat and moisture. Robust sealing of the housing is ensured by
a silicone ring. Since the diaphragms are extremely small and
thin (less than 1 μm), the fact that they are made of different
materials does not influence their acoustic properties – over a
wide frequency range, these diaphragms oscillate in tandem.
High-note emphasis
Your microphone is delivered with two slip-on caps of different
lengths. You may use these caps for high-note emphasis.
Slip the cap on the head of the microphone until it locks into place.
Please refer to the frequency diagrams on the page 39.
y Short slip-on cap: MZC platinum-1
y Long slip-on cap: MZC platinum-2
Makeup protection
Please protect your MKE platinum-C by
means of the makeup protection, if you
attach your MKE platinum-C to your body
and want to put on makeup. The makeup
protection is easy to install: just slip it on
the microphone (with or without slip-on
cap). The makeup protection prevents
makeup from penetrating into the
gauze. Remove the makeup protection
shortly before you enter the stage.
The makeup protection is available as
accessory.
