Neumann KU 100
The KU 100 dummy head is a binaural stereo microphone. It resembles the human head and has two microphone capsules built into the ears. When listening through high-quality headphones it gives the illusion of being right at the scene of the acoustic events.
When using the KU 100 dummy head, the binaural stereo experience moves the listener into the scene of the original performance, in contrast to other space-related recording techniques, where the acoustic event is moved to the listener.
The dummy head is also used in many industrial applications as a measuring device, for example in acoustic research. The KU 100 can be operated with typical 48 V phantom powering, or from an external power supply unit, or from the built-in battery.
At the bottom of the unit is a switch for the different power supply modes, as well as connectors for balanced and unbalanced output signals. Inside the head are additional switches for 10 dB attenuation and the high-pass filter.

Pearl Multi-Pattern Stereo Microphone DS 60
The DS 60 is very versatile in many different recording situations. Instead of being divided into two parts, the capsules are fixed at 90 degreeds to each other. The microphone consists of a solid-brass body, finished in black chromium and gold plated mesh. During an X-Y recording, simply turn the microphone and direct the engraved X-Y sign towards the centre of the sound field. For M-S recording, there is an engraved M-S sign to be used in the same way. The required microphone pattern is chosen at the console. The pre-amplifier, which is extremely quiet, has four output channels, one for each cardioid membrane, connected via a 9 pin Lemo plug. Each capsule provides 180 degreeds coincident stereo. The operator decides how to use the signals, either cardioid, figure of eight, omni-directional, X-Y or M-S patterns or Blumlein. The microphone is connected by a special cable consisting of a 9 pin Lemo at the microphone end and a four way splitter terminating in 3-pin XLR's to the console. It is a natural choice for the concert hall yet just as well suited for church organs

The M 149 Tube is a variable dual-diaphragm microphone. The K 49 capsule, well-known from the legendary U 47 and M 49 microphone, is followed by a tube functioning as an impedance converter. In contrast to earlier concepts, utilizing a transformer, the tube is complemented with a transformerless output circuit design. The M 149 Tube can thus feed long microphone cables without any coloration.
Two slide switches are located below the large, acoustically very open headgrille. The switch at the front allows selection one of nine directional patterns.
The slide switch at the rear operates a seven-step high pass filter. It allows a very fine adjustment of the cut-off.
