Sennheiser MD 46 On-The-Air Interview Kit

Broadcast-Quality Interview Microphone Kit for ENG and Field Production

The Sennheiser MD 46 On-The-Air Interview Kit, available from B&H, is a complete professional package tailored for broadcast journalists, field reporters, and ENG teams. This kit includes the renowned Sennheiser MD 46 cardioid handheld microphone, a black Auray square microphone flag, and a Porta Brace MH-2 holster, giving you everything you need for clear, focused audio and polished on-camera presentation.

Focused Voice Capture with Cardioid Polar Pattern

The Sennheiser MD 46 ENG microphone is a professional dynamic mic designed specifically for interviews and live reporting. Unlike omnidirectional microphones that pick up ambient noise, the cardioid pickup pattern of the MD 46 focuses directly on the speaker's voice. This delivers greater speech clarity, even in noisy or unpredictable environments.

Built with a long, balanced handle and a double-layer grille, this mic reduces wind noise and minimizes vocal popping. Sennheiser developed the MD 46 for NBC’s coverage of the 2000 Sydney Olympics, giving it a legacy of real-world broadcast use. With low handling noise, strong off-axis rejection, and studio-quality sound, it’s a top choice for demanding field interviews.

Customizable Branding with the Auray Square Mic Flag

Also included in the kit is a 2.25-inch square Auray microphone flag, designed to fit most standard ENG handheld microphones. The flag comes with foam inserts to fit different handle sizes securely. Its smooth black surface offers ideal space to display your station ID, network logo, or brand name during interviews and press appearances.

Field-Ready Portability with Porta Brace MH-2 Holster

To keep your mic close and protected on location, the kit features the Porta Brace MH-2 mic holster. Made from rugged 1000-denier Cordura fabric, this 10-inch holster attaches to your belt and keeps the microphone easily accessible. A secure front zipper holds the mic in place when not in use. Built-in D-rings and a cable holder help manage your gear, making this a smart addition for active field work.
