Sennheiser MKH 8020
Sennheiser MKH 8020
Outstanding omni-directional instrument microphone. Ideal as a main mic for “spaced pair” and “Decca Tree” recordings or the use in an OSS “Jecklin Disk“ array. Wide frequency response: 10 – 60,000 Hz.
The omni-directional MKH 8020 is ideal for recording large and small sound sources, for a «Decca Tree» or for use in an OSS «Jecklin Disk» array. As it does not suffer from a proximity effect, it is also a good choice for close-miking. If the acoustic ambiance is right, this microphone will provide very impressive recordings. The extra octave at the bottom end makes the MKH 8020 perfect for recording pipe organs, grand piano and acoustic double-bass.

Belgium electronic rock band, GOOSE, has a fanbase that spans Europe. 2020 marks two decades of success and also the tenth anniversary of their second album, Synrise. To mark the occasion, and to give their fans something special in these challenging times, GOOSE collaborated with Sennheiser and Belgium’s PXL University of Applied Sciences and Arts to produce an extraordinary binaural recording and mix of the album’s title track.
GOOSE – that‘s Mickael Karkousse (vocals/synth), Tom Coghe (synth), Dave Martijn (synth) and Bert Libeert (drums) – is never afraid to think outside of the box when it comes to developing new ideas in terms of music production and live shows. When the idea came to record an immersive version of Synrise, both Sennheiser and PXL, known for pushing the boundaries of innovation in audio technology, saw an opportunity to deliver something new and significant in the development of immersive audio.
