This thoughtfully assembled bundle includes the compact second-generation Sennheiser MKE 400 shotgun microphone, a lightweight Auray aluminum boompole, a mini ball head mount, a 10-foot extension cable, and a neoprene travel bag, everything you need for crystal-clear, on-the-go audio recording.

Professional-Grade Microphone Performance

The Sennheiser MKE 400 (2nd Generation) is a compact, camera-mount shotgun mic designed to capture focused, high-quality audio, even in noisy environments. With a supercardioid pickup pattern and integrated wind protection, it effectively isolates your subject’s voice while minimizing unwanted ambient noise.

Built for mobile setups, the MKE 400 is equipped with a 3-stage gain control and a low-cut filter, allowing you to fine-tune your sound at the source. It runs up to 100 hours on two AAA batteries and features a convenient auto-power function to preserve battery life.

Smart Connectivity for Cameras and Mobile Devices

To suit a wide variety of setups, the mic includes two locking coiled cables: one with a TRS connector for cameras and DSLRs, and one with a TRRS connector for smartphones and tablets. These secure, easy-swap connections make it simple to switch between devices on the fly.

A built-in 3.5mm headphone output with volume control lets you monitor your audio in real time, ensuring clarity and avoiding surprises in post.

Clear Audio with Minimal Handling Noise

Thanks to its internal shockmount system, the MKE 400 rejects vibrations and handling noise when mounted on a camera, gimbal, or boompole. Combined with built-in wind protection, it delivers clean audio without needing extra accessories, although a furry windshield is included for outdoor use.

The compact form factor (just 5 inches long and 3.3 oz) means it won’t block your shot or weigh down your gear. It mounts easily using the integrated cold shoe.

Auray BP-36A Lightweight Aluminum Boompole

Extend your microphone’s reach with the Auray BP-36A boompole, crafted from lightweight aluminum for durability without added weight. It smoothly telescopes from 2.7 to 7 feet, perfect for interviews, documentaries, or capturing ambient sound while staying out of frame.

Quick-twist locks allow for fast adjustments, and a comfortable foam grip ensures stable handling, even during extended shoots.

Additional Accessories for Complete Flexibility

• The Oben BD-02 Mini Ball Head enables secure, adjustable mic mounting on the boompole.

• A 10-foot Pearstone 3.5mm extension cable provides plenty of length between the mic and your camera.

• The Auray Neoprene Boompole Bag keeps your gear protected during travel. It fits the closed boompole with mic and softie, includes a zippered interior pocket, and features a name tag holder and adjustable shoulder strap.

Whether you're recording interviews, capturing dialogue on location, or enhancing YouTube videos, the Sennheiser MKE 400 Boom Kit delivers a reliable, portable audio setup that raises the standard for mobile sound recording.
