shotgun microphone. This may lead to diffused spatial effects, 

which can be desirable or undesirable depending on the re-

cording situation. In case of doubt, the proportion of the S sig-

nal should not be chosen too high. In some cases, it might be 

necessary to reduce the treble in the S channel on the mixing 

console. At low frequencies below 300 Hz, it is very difficult to 

locate sounds for physiological reasons. Since the S system of 

the microphone, due to its design principle, is more sensitive 

than the M system to low-frequency interference caused for 

example by wind, the bass in the S channel should be reduced 

if required (eg: with a high-pass filter).
