Schoeps CMIT WS4 Set (CMIT 5 Shotgun Mic + Modular Windshield)
$139/day$417/wk

The closed-back studio standard — 40mm drivers, 63 ohms, a 10Hz–20kHz response and a coiled cable ending in a 3.5mm plug with a 1/4in adapter. Folds flat into a kit bag.
Hear what the recorder actually hears — the industry-standard monitoring can that reveals hum, rustle and traffic before it ruins a take.
On the sound operator, always. No monitoring = gambling.
